They have no idea why the repair worked, or even if the part replaced was the cause of the problem, or a symptom of another problem. For example, if the final transistors are burned out on a transmitter, you replace the transistors. This fixes the immediate problem, but the problem will come back if the real problem is something like high SWR on the antenna connection, or an intermittent short in the co-ax cable. One big part of Karl's problem is that he installs files from non-RPM sources that overwrite installed files, and then updates overwrite these files. Then he blames the updates for breaking things. The kind of problem you would expect from someone that does not understand how a package manager works.
