That is no spite. Ask on the developer lists. > Why are you using Debian Actually Ubuntu. Because the system is suitably easy to keep running and has a working package system. Even if the particular package policies for Emacs are not workable for developers apart from the Debian package maintainers themselves. > and posting here if it's so bad? I subscribed to this list when I had a need of understanding the Emacs package policies. While I did not succeed in this endeavor, there are still decisions made here where I think my input not completely amiss. If you know for certain that Debian developers won't listen to input, I might consider unsubscribing again. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
