It certainly _resembles_ a classic troll: long and vaguely insulting (under a surface veneer of politeness), yet curiously vague and information-free, despite its length, and ending with "I'm giving up on Debian." When pushed for details (in a later message), he says "I'm too busy to file bug reports." There are certainly valid complaints about Debian (and have been for every release), but people who are really trying to give constructive criticism almost always seem to act very differently: they complain about specific problems, in at least enough detail that people know what they're talking about. Even if the OP didn't actually intend to troll, somebody who does nothing other than make vague insinuations and refuses to provide details simply isn't a very useful part of any conversation whose goal is to make things better... -miles -- Opposition, n.
