Hello, I wish to bring up something that bothers me.
I just installed a stable Debian package that advertises to perform so many wonderful tasks, but in reality, it does little more than provide an attractive graphical interface for a segmentation fault. I searched google and indeed found others that had this problem with this package. I also found out that this problem was solved a couple years ago in a newer version. Unfortunately, Debian is still delivering a broken-out-of-the-box version of this package. ------- I feel that this issue reflects a need for the Debian team to enforce a higher standard on functionality and reliability of the packages that are available in the family of stable packages. I believe there should be a stronger system where broken, non-functional or obsolete package are weeded out as they make Debian appear broken and unstable. At minimum, a voting system where users can rate up or down packages at packages.debian.org or some other feedback to warn or encourage prospective users.
