In essence, people who are not being paid monetarily are being paid in the good feelings that they get from doing their work. If you make demands in the tones you use, you are removing some of their "pay". At best, this means that the people you rant against will start to ignore you. At worst, they'll stop contributing to free software and you'll be left with the broken pieces and no one to fix them. You may have a good and valid reason why preserving yum upgrades (without the workaround that I already posted) is more important than the benefits of moving the programs from / to /usr. But unless you learn to state your reasons in a more conciliatory manner people are just going to argue with you or ignore you. -Toshio
