And what right do you think you have to insult me? May I remind you that not everyone is a programmer /pur sang/ and that this so-called "bashism" is for me the most efficient and clearest way of installing things. It has always worked on several machines, even huge grids, without problems WRT shells. Not even Lintian has made any remarks on this. And yes, I have defined DH_ALWAYS_EXCLUDE, but only for typical repository directories like .git. All the files inside debian/ have been reviewed by several of my and your colleagues, and never have they mentioned any problems with it. I am aware that not everyone is as revered a polymath as Your Exalted Eminence. Yet a *little* bit of restraint in your answer would have been more than appropriate in a civilized conversation. I shall make the changes you have suggested, but redirect all of your arrogant remarks straight to /dev/null if you don't mind. -- Danai SAE-HAN (韓達耐) 題目:《泊船瓜洲》 作者:王安石(1021-1086) 京口瓜洲一水間,鐘山只隔數重山。 春風又綠江南岸,明月何時照我還。
