Not true. Only one of the problems comes from bad packaging. There are others. Some people find the DSP problems artistic though I can't imagine anyone finding 1000db outputs artisitic (or helpful to ones speakers). So DSP aside, these plugins even when properly packaged, do sometimes cause crashes in combination with other plugins which use the same GUI lib but different version (gtk2 vs gtk3). My understanding is that the Calf team is working on a GUI toolkit to replace GTK. (GTK or QT should never be used as a plugin toolkit and any toolkit used should be compiled in static)
