Amazing.
Tell me, are your trying to turn debian support/BTS into a joke?
If one need to run the brand new latest über-unstable version of the kernel to
have a chance to get his bug report *read*, why do even reportbug accept to
submit bugs reports against older versions?
I find really astonishing to get such reply to a bug report about a not so
trivial bug in a not so trivial piece of software while running Debian
GNU/Linux.
Indeed, if you are not even polite enough to read more than 3 words in a bug
report, clearly you do not need/deserve more help to improve Debian. Do not
expect "more info" any time soon.
Not really sure it is in the best interest of Debian.
CCed to debian-devel because I'm wondering if this way of handling bug reports
(not reading more than 3 words of the reports and then asking for more info
and asking to install unstable software) is endorsed by debian developers
nowadays.
