Why do you assume I am angry? I am not. Don't you know how uncivil
it is to make assumptions on other peoples emotions?

I don't care if he thinks that.

False, he just asked me to explain again what I just had
explained.

Thanks for telling what I should care about, I really appreciate
it.
I don't care if he likes pkg_* better for his usage, that's
entirely up to him. I just showed people what I use and like, to
offer them an alternative. Anyone is free to take it or leave it.

He was not civil, he asked me to explain again what I had already
explained. And his personal evaluation is personal yet he makes
it look like he speaks for the rest of the world, which is also
not civil.

Anybody can take anything as an insult. That's their business. I
bet for instance you take my reply as an insult, while in reality
I merely point out how uncivil it is what you wrote. Lack of
uncivil words do not make something civilized.

Thank you for telling me what to realize. I really appreciate it.
