> my question for feedback is about this bug, not some other bugs. Yes, I understand that you would prefer to work on fixing this bug, disregarding other bugs in this package. Due to the entanglements of this bug with another bug I however find it unreasonable to work on this one in isolation. Hence my conclusion that your work in isolation is of no use a.k.a. useless. I shall respect your wish to not care about other bugs, but that means I cannot explain to you how things are entangled - because that is not possible without bringing your attention to that other bug. > If it is a requirement to solve all issues with your package to get a > single bug fixed, then sorry, I find that unacceptable. Duly noted. For the record, your decribed requirement does not reflect my position on the matter. > If "useless" is everything you have to say about the work of a > contributor, then please reconsider your involvement in a community of > developers. I have more to say to contributors in general, but frankly your attitude does not positively excite me for continued dialogue with you in particular. For the record this conversation began in a Matrix chatroom like this: >> Hi! I would like to work on >> https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=972409 >> How should I proceed?

I am unable to parse the above as anything but a pile of insults and wrong assumptions. But let me try anyway... Yes, I am not disabled. Yes, I already provided feedback on the questions at hand - maybe not the feedback you hoped for, but feedback nonetheless. Yes, you asked me to judge your work so that is what I did - again maybe not how you hoped for, but... No, you are mistaken that I have ignored this package for several years. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
