Really sorry, but such a statement is simply intellectual bullshit. 
Unfortunately, it is not possible to formulate this in a more friendly yet 
unambiguous way. And in this thread in particular, the many allegations, 
unclouded by any expertise but made all the more decisively, are simply 
annoying - and a huge waste of everyone’s time in the long run.

But it's true.

One of my packages had a bundled library with 6 critical vulnerabilities (outdated for 5 years). The upstream developers said they didn't care because they needed their app to run under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Fixed it manually by switching to the packaged version.

Another package had bundled OpenSSL, which was 3 years out of date.
