If someone is Hurd newbie and (s)he tries to use fakeroot for building Debian packages, what do you think that (s)he'll think about the Hurd?
What will the newbie think if she/head finds a totally obscure bug that eats the file-system, or any other horrible thing? I think that you don't really have a point here. Bugs exist, if a user finds them they should report them so that they can be fixed. Doesn't matter if it is a newbie, or a guru. a top-level file BUGS that lists major user-visible known bugs. That is like "it is not a bug, it is a feature", known bugs should be fixed before a release. _______________________________________________ Bug-hurd mailing list Bug-hurd@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-hurd
