Well, I said how it is. I don't see anything in it that indicates I am |
| 11 |
so upset and angry that I need to do these things. I did however loose |
| 12 |
hours of work time, but that's life. |

This is what I am doing with this as well, in addition to the bug |
| 19 |
reports. But as this is widespread to at least 4-6 system packages, I |
| 20 |
brought it up here as well to ensure this is not something I have to |
| 21 |
fight against in overlays and time wastes continuously in the future. |
| 22 |
Oh and net-tools has not distributed anything in .tar.lzma, so this has |
| 23 |
nothing to do with following upstream in any shape or form in this case. |
