> To fix such an issue, nobody in the world will agree to you to "fix"
this in the Build-Depends field.

Using additional build-depends to workaround such issues is common but
let's not discuss that.  Does the issue break any official build in
jaunty or does it break some builder service you try to set?

> You fix issues in jaunty-updates, which are of much less priority or
severity of this bug. Your hint to "pressed CDs" and "frozen archives" -
shall I really comment these arguments?

Let's agree to disagree on the priority on the issue there, it's not
user visible for anybody running jaunty, it's not breaking any official
builds and people hacking on softwares can workaround the issue. Could
you explain why you think it's a blocker issue you can't workaround or
give some details on your usecase?

> which can be easily tested (even by your own).

Right but the process is such that stable update needs to be validated
by a team charged of testing those and that work has a cost, you could
argue that the process is too strict but it has been set this way based
on issue which happened before

> And disagreeing with you is not a violation of any code of conduct.

The disagreement is not an issue, the "WTF? Are you kidding me?" is one

> Closing a report that is clearly about Jaunty with a hint to the
unreleased Karmis is stupid and/or insulting.

That's how the bug tracker is working and how bugs are handled in most
project in opensource. The bug has been fixed in the current unstable
version so it's closed, a jaunty task can be opened though if we want to
consider to apply the change to jaunty, do you think it's not a correct
workflow and why? Why should this bug still be opened for karmic if it's
fixed there?

> You can decide for your own, what you would think. Karmic is not (yet)
relevant for *any* production system. And for the software (bluefish
1.3), for which I build packages for Ubuntu users, it won't even become
this year, beacuse I cannot expect every user to switch in a short time
period after a new release.

Who said it is? You just seem to fail to understand that stable
distribution have different tasks and that a jaunty fix would require a
jaunty task there...
