Package: mingw32
Version: 3.4.5.20060117.1-1
Severity: minor

I feel I know what you're trying to mean by "Freedom through
obsolescence." but I can't parse it. I am a happy user of the mingw32
package to support people who need win32 binaries. What's the freedom
being endowed, and how is it being endowed through obsolescence?
Obsolescence of what? Even if it's a joke (I'm imagining it painting
win32 as obsolescent) I still don't get it. If that's right, it's
definitely freedom *from* obsolescence.

Sorry if this seems trivial, but package descriptions should be slick,
and, whether funny or not, shouldn't stick in the craw as this one
does. Forgive me if I'm simply being stupid...
