Historical context probably matters here. That's a very old statement. Partly from the era when Gentoo was "cool" and when "ricing" was a thing. At the time, upstream was inundated with absurd requests like "oh noes, I disabled CXX Exceptions, and the code broke, upstream is wrong!". Whatever we did, or upstream did, the absurd complaints have gone away. But I'll see what I can wrangle :) pgpfy7l8eNo37.pgp Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Whilst I use rxvt-unicode myself I can't help but agree with Joonas. You mentioned working raport with upstream? Can we rely on that to at the very least get them to update that to "due to the way Gentoo functions we request that you first file issues with the Gentoo repository rather than directly with rxvt-unicode? That is pure and outright slander, and whilst I "get" (to an extent) and GNU/Linux statement - he should then have the same issue with RedHat Enterprise GNU/Linux. Or with "Debian" and "CentOS" for that matter which does not contain "GNU/Linux" in the name. Alternatively if there is no issue with that then perhaps we should consider just being "Gentoo" ... Also happy to help with solving issues if/when they occur, granted the only X development experience I've got is via Qt3 at the time ... so happy to help, so not sure how much help I'll be, but happy to help with testing. Welcome to CC me on bugs. Kind Regards, Jaco
