The context, which is where your answer lies, is exactly what
you elided. I guess that stands to reason. You routinely and
consistently are unable to handle sending email?

So, you can't read documentation to figure out how to make
your uploader check that you have forgotten to sign things -- which
also implies that your test/build/upload process leaves a lot to be
desired, if this happens very often.

Yes. This would be a bare modicum of competence,
really. Building packages correctly and consistently is not rocket
science. If you find it so, are you sure Gentoo is not more to your
liking?

Jesus Christ. I hope to hell you are kidding. Is sending email
correctly, or crafting a build process so you do not forget to sign a
sign of perfection? Is this wat the quality of the membership has
deteriorated to?
Maybe /. is right after all. Perhaps Debian has grown too big
to be a quality distribution, and we should all head over to Fedora
Core 4.

Yeah. I should have realized the level of audience I was
trying to talk to. I'll try to speak in words of fewer syllables the
next time around.
