<div><br>Excellent - now that light has been shed on this minor detail, I&#39;m sure you won&#39;t see that comment on pkgcore bugs again. <br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
 If you have the patience to read the<br> pingpong between Harring and McCreesh the current discussion is wether<br> that format even makes sense, not wether a fixed bug in a third-party<br> app is relevant.</blockquote><div>
<br>I&#39;m pretty sure the aforementioned pingpong started as a result of a pkgcore bug. Thilo referred to one of Ciaran&#39;s first replies and as such, I see no reason to regard that reply as an ad hominem attack.<br></div>
</div><br>Enough, I was only replying to a question brought up by Thilo, and I do not want to waste time on an endless discussion with other gentoo users.<br>-- <br>Anders Ossowicki &lt;<a href="mailto:and@...">and@...</a>&gt;
