I have no problem with that. No one should be forced to update their system if they choose not to. However, to carry your statement to its logical conclusion, you should issue a warning that attempting to update your system carries dire risks since the updates have not been properly tested. For the record, users knew exactly why the were updating "ruby", they wanted to. If it was not to be used, then why release it? What they did not know was that it was going to bite them in the ass, like so many other updates (cups+gnutls) have lately. If it had been failing on a few obscure programs, then I could probably say it was an unfortunate oversight. When it starts failing on major applications used by a large number of FreeBSD users, then it should be labels what it is, incompetency. Opps, did I hurt someone's feeling? Well, you screwed up my system and wasted hours of my valuable time, so now we are even.
My advice? Go find yourself a better OS and quit bitching about the one you obviously no longer like.
Your complaints might be legitimate, but your tone, words and attitude stink.
Ooops, did I hurt your feelings?
