RMS did not say that. He listened to Debian's concerns, and
acknowledged that there were GDFL-related issues he had not previously
been aware of. He characterized them as *primarily* consisting of
"license compatibility" problems, which was indeed the case. To quote
RMS's relevant message:
> ... the rest are real inconveniences ...
Debian should give RMS a chance to think for a while, and consult with
others including his legal council and other parties at the FSF,
rather than taking hasty action. This is a courtesy we've extended to
upstream authors many times before, and it seems unreasonable not to
extend it in this case as well.
