Because this was not about maintainership, but was a simple and
straight-forward breakage report [*1*].  There was no criticism
involved, constructive or otherwise.

In other words, I knew that you are capable enough to track down a
bug in the code you wrote recently that made it violate the
expectation you defined in your own tests.  There was no room for
differences of opinions to come into play, as it was just between
you and your own code.

Why would I expect otherwise?

Do you want to make it a separate follow-up patch with a log message
that explains why it now uses LookupError (not ManifestLookupError),
or do you want to reroll the original by squashing it?  I am guessing
that the reason is because in older versions they used LookupError
but in recent versions ManifestLookupError which is a subclass is
thrown instead, and catching the former would cover both cases, so
if I were to queue it as a separate [PATCH 5/4] fixup, that is how
I would explain that change.

*1* .... and a very bad one at that, missing any useful details; I
apologize and blame lack of time for its lousiness.

Thanks for working with very little useful information and fixing.
