16:31:42 cross-post to three mailing lists from rsyslog maintainer, FUD
Heck, I was preparing a mail to debian-qa to give some explanation
about my reasoning and suggestions on how to improve the situation.
Don't you have other things to do? If not, how about thinking a bit
about what the concerns of the bug submitter could be?
In another area I work, this is called the
jumping-on-bugs-anti-pattern
I really don't think this is the way bugs filed by a Debian developer,
who is with Debian since more than 13 years, should be handled.
Actually no matter who filed the bugs.
I filed bugs, raised my concerns, and stand by this.

This is not the bug I reported, but "rsyslog: is priority important,
depends on packages with priority extra" and a list of four packages,
not one.
