I'm sorry you take it like this. All I can say is, if you think what I wrote is over the line, well that's nothing compared to what will be headed your way the day the auto-download stuff starts being promoted for Linux distributions. I tried to give you a friendly warning. Non native packaging is not a maybe but a never here. Native packages are in the end 99% of what's a distribution is about. But since you insist, I'll let you discover it by yourself. I have no more wish than anyone else to be caught in the middle of a crossfire I didn't started. -- Nicolas Mailhot
