Umh... sorry for making your life even more miserable with a sixth and
seventh answer in the same path ;-)
We Debianers tend to have low social skills, and for one, I apologize
if I'm making you feel unwelcome. Much to the contrary - But we _will_
continue making this point: We care more about the quality of the end
product than about being nice people. It is fundamental for Debian
that the packages are buildable in the target systems, that they are
well tested by the maintainers, and that the maintainers are familiar
with the tasks their packages need to do. If you state you are not
running Debian in your build system, well... I would not be surprised
at having some reactions ;-)
