As for "unwilling to help", I help where I see a need. As for solutions, well, you have one, but you'd create more problems than you'd solve. > So, what's the deal with your continued engagement? > I'm not here to stop you exercising whatever power you've garnered over whatever domain you've claimed. (No wonder you're baffled by my presence.) I'm here to bell the cat. What you're doing is harmful. Forking the packages that make up your distribution is harmful and so is fragmenting the ABI. You can't improve Debian by refusing to acknowledge it's limitations. You can't improve the Debian experience by railroading users. You can't improve upstream codebases by papering over their mistakes. You can't improve collaboration by ignoring the advice of upstream toolchain and kernel developers. You can't have a stable ABI without consensus. You can't improve the long term prospects for the Linux/m68k project until you understood how it got to where it was when you arrived. So to answer your fine question, Adrian, I continue to engage out of hope that you will finally realize that there are better ways to serve the community than the path you're on.
