Bearcat, <br><br>I would be absolutely in agreement with you except for one thing: That's not quite what was said. What Victor actually asked was "How do I fix this?" and what was actually posted was a link to the gossamer thread where it had already been brought to the dev's attention, and a comment to "write the code or be patient". To follow that, a couple days later was posted the ticket with the patch numbers as to when it was applied to the trunk branch and to the fixes branch. From there, it's out of the dev's hands and into the hands of the individual package maintainers or of the user if you compile your own system.
<br><br>While the answer could have been more verbose, it did address the question asked. From what I've seen, the people on this list try not to be rude, but many of us are computer professionals, not PR or marketing people, and we're not always the most eloquent, well-expressed, or smooth-spoken crowd.
<br><br>YMMV<br><br>And Victor, I think you read to much into Mike's reply. He was trying his best to answer your question simply and to the point.<br>-- <br>Doug<br><br>gossamer link for Victor's original thread:
