Upload of package accepted [1]: Sat, 30 Jun 2007 07:02:01 + Closure of the bug [2]: Sat, 30 Jun 2007 08:44:16 +0200 Actions were coordinated on #d-boot. IMO the times are close enough (18 min. difference) to justify my statement that the bug was closed together with the upload of the package fixing the problem, as was indicated by Christian in his reply closing the report. Reason the build errors still occur for powerpc is that the upload was done for amd64 and the powerpc buildd took more than a day to pick it up. For powerpc, the package should get hit the mirrors with the mirror pulse running $NOW. As someone who has been intimately involved with Debian for so long, one would expect mr. Luther to know how these things work...

And you're wrong too. It is common practice to close bugs when the fix has been uploaded, which is exactly what Christian did. Is this going to be your next game? CC'ing the BTS admins as this is a second example of BTS abuse in the last few weeks. And there was at least one other recent example of BTS pingpong from you on #426262. And no, a smiley does not make this a joke or reduce the seriousness of your abuse. You're only annoying maintainers and wasting people's time. You're also shooting yourself in the foot because behavior like this is hardly likely to want maintainers to work on your issues. pgpRMVLYDoMiZ.pgp Description: PGP signature
