You have obviously not read the relevant commit msg, reviewed the already |
20 |
existing thread on -dev, or attempted to ask (and await a response) relevant |
21 |
questions. |

|
23 |
Jumping to conclusions does not help anyone. |

<@zx2c4> that was supposed to be a || ( ... ) |
26 |
<@zx2c4> but for whatever reason the maintainer forgot that |
27 |
<@zx2c4> so im going to correct that and remove eyeD3 from the list<@zx2c4> and unmask it |
28 |
<@zx2c4> b-man: sound good? |
29 |
<@zx2c4> slashbeast: woah look at d85e166dd999c354a5346fbb57aaaa68cc6f38ac |
30 |
<@zx2c4> it's ... a lot of packages |
31 |
<@zx2c4> hey removing beets too? thats not cool |
32 |
<@zx2c4> and pp? |
33 |
<@zx2c4> um |
34 |
<@zx2c4> actually, this is ridiculous |

So, clearly, you did not read the commit msg or review the thread. Magically, |
37 |
you were actually going to *fix* a package and then got overwhelmed with how |
38 |
many of your favorite pkgs were on the list. |
39 |
|
40 |
Don't be lazy. Others are working to fix them and keep them around. |
