As I'm doing it in my free time, I don't see why I should tolerate your tantrums, which seem to happen every time you report problems with Debian. Sorry for being a bit harsh, but from now on I'm going to discard any email from you which does not exclusively contain constructive comments, patches, or other information which helps to advance our common goal.
