But I don't really care. I'm tired of hearing about how debian needs to
change so it can become the GNU OS rather than the aimless collection of
packages put together by uninformed linux chimps, so I'm destructively
tweaking the argument. Yes it's childish, but I'm starting to despair of
ever finding common ground with this ridiculous hurd thing.
There are real fundamental questions that are way more important than
this pissing and moaning about libexec. To wit: do the hurd people see
Debian as an OS they want their kernel to run, or a package format for
their own OS? Is Debian an independent organization worthy of
consideration on its own merits, or a weak shell for unreleated OS
projects? The vibes I'm getting from the hurd camp are disturbing, and
not at all what I hear from the bsd camp. (The latter seem to want
Debian, but with some bsd elements, while the former increasingly seem
to want GNU with a Debian.org address.)
