It is totally reasonable to provide a link to a post with far more content than the bug tracking system can contain. If they, whoever they are, feel the need to replicate data then they should replicate the portion they actually worked on.

This bug is a shining example of the failure of AGILE and TDD.

A "story" got posted.

    As a developer I would like a set of steps to setup a cross compile for the Raspberry Pi.

"The developer" was left to their own devices. There was no System Architecture Guide, Systems Requirements Document, Business Requirements Document, or Functional Requirements Document from which a QA group would have required a single test application which utilized each of the database components, WebEngine, and whatever else was available in the current Raspbian repos. They would have also required the build environment be a 64-bit machine compiling for a 32-bit target so bugs in the instructions could not be masked.

The "sprintable solution" was "Hello World!" so that's what got delivered.

That is also why you see so many incredibly angry comments about that wiki page and every blog post which references it.

While we are on the topic, here is the lovely response.

Be reasonable.

Just linking to your rambling blog in the bug report is not reasonable.
