Sure, but there's just too many good reasons for not fixing something ranging from "If I fix this it'll break that" to "I can't reproduce this and am not sure this is a real problem, but I can't disprove it either", to "I just got married, debian can wait for a week" to "I'm not going to be able to do much on my packages till I get out of the hospital" to "I didn't see that bug last time I checked, and I don't understand why my packages have been orphaned, as far as I know I've been receiving email successfully every day for the last year," ... -- Raul -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
