The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

What about systems without floppy disks? They do exist!  I say you are
limiting our options.  If this is not a bug, than it is at least a
feature request, because we could easily provide the binary linked
static and dynamic and let the local administrator decide which option
he/she likes.  As for the installation disks size: That problem could
also be solved if really it were a problem: Since the package needs
not to be present as a whole the scripts creating the disk should be
able to either pick the dynamically-linked version or, preferred,
rebuild all necessary components from the sources as needed.

In addition i do seem to remember that you are not the package
maintainer:  If a package is maintained, then it is up to the
maintainer or those reporting the bug/feature request to close
it.

So Mr. President could you please let people do _THEIR_ work without
constantly interfering?  I would appreciate that.

Thanks a lot,
