Have you considered minding your own fucking business?  You've all been
fucking dog-piling me since I first posted the fucking bug report, and I'm
fucking sick of it.

Obviously I've beens far too subtle for you fuckers to understand, so I'll
state it very plainly so that even a cretin can understand:

ALL OF YOU FUCK OFF AND STOP FUCKING HARASSING ME.

Hi Craig,

I think that was well beyond what could be acceptable for a Debian
member to behave like. Have you considering finding other venues?

The bug is closed, you lot have dog-piled enough, and respect is earned, not
an entitlement.  I respond to dismissive contempt with more of the same.
I certainly have no respect or tolerance for posturing busybody wankers
pretending they have the high moral ground.

More importantly, I really do not give a fuck any more.  I have my own
workaround for a shitty broken package that does a shitty job of implementing
a stupid and pointless idea.

Go away and stop bothering me.

Nope. If it were that easy to reproduce and the package were that buggy, it 
would never have been uploaded. (Please offer a tiny bit of respect to your 
fellow developers!)

You might be unaware that stable→sid upgrades are tested automatically, and 
that the problem can't be reproduced there either.

Understanding what provoked apt to pick the wrong package on your particular 
system is needed here. Quite obviously no-one else can reproduce it (or, once 
again, it wouldn't have been uploaded). Also obviously, if there are no 
details, it won't be fixed except perhaps by accident.

The output of « apt list '~o' » and « apt-cache policy » might have useful 
clues still.

Please re-read your initial bug report and then please don't try taking the 
high moral ground about the tone of the discussion.
