Thank you for first getting a clue,
No thanks to you or Ralf for insulting your fellow contributors and
showing the your "joke" claim wasn't really a joke after all. If you
want to prevent me or anyone from suggesting anything at all before we
start packaging a arbitrary number of 30 packages that isn't going to
happen.
The 30 packages part was not serious, it was an example. The getting a clue
part is not a joke, if you do not understand what Ralf means with a simple
program start (without any cmdline arguments) for many programs will only
result in a usage message, and then claim that getting the usage message covers
testing basic functionality, then you do not know what you're talking about.
Ever heard of coverage percentages for software tests? Only getting the usage()
message scores you about 1 to 0.1 % of coverage for a small program (and then
I'm being very optimistic), even less for a larger one.
Distribution building is more than packaging. It involves everything
from documentation, translation to infrastructure work and lots more. We
are all contributors in different areas. Keep that mind.
I know that and I very much value and appreciate all the work done by
documenters, tranlaters, the infra structure team and all I forget. However I'm
not participating in discussions about translations as I know very little about
translations. Learn to know you're own weakness-es, and if you have little
knowledge of something, then don't mingle yourself in discussions about it.
Atleast so far you've shown little knowledge of testing.
Regards,
Hans
