Err, I wasn't hurt. Just irritated, really. I accept your apology,
of course, thank you. To avoid irritating other maintainers too you
might like to avoid setting the severity of your bugs in future, at
least until you've got a good feel for when it's appropriate.

I take it you're a Skolelinux developer.
I'm still concerned about your misunderstanding about the context and
purpose of Debian-native packages. Where did you get the idea that
the number of Debian-native packages should be minimised ? The source
documentation you were using needs to be corrected, I think.
Whether something should be packaged as Debian-native or upstream/diff
depends on facts about the development process. It's not a decision
where one answer should be avoided if possible; instead, it's a
decision that generally just has one right answer in each case.
You said in your report that the package being Debian-native causes
derived distros some kind of problem. Do you have any more details
about this problem ? Or could you put me in touch with someone who
can explain it to me ?
Regards,
Ian.
