I'm not even sure what p-t would do to you if you tried that on it.
So there's already lots of good reasons why tags without the epoch will

I really think we can also have the latter, built on an exploration of

really thought through to completion before now. That would be the

I am curious about how its 'universe' maps to packages that
aren't strictly linear because there have been backports or
security uploads, or other stable updates, or mi

Be that as it may, it has been suggested that jigdo could be used
to make region-specific disks, and that sounds like a good idea to

In order to keep the "conversation" going, let's rephrase that
to:
"so you would even accept vil sexist/racist/homophobic/globalist
baby-eating Republican propaganda material".

and "censoring".
In The West, at least, the author can *still* write whatever he/she
wants, and get it "out there", even if a document is rejected by

photocopier, or, of course, the internet will still let you get
out what you want.
Why can't you understand that?

There was a case last year where a group of adults were floating
down a river, making a constant, loud stream of crude comments.
Just downstream was a couple of families with young children. A
parent video-taped the scene, found a local sheriff, and the off-
enders were arrested. The
