< carnil> h01ger: thanks forwarded to alberto
* h01ger still busy cleaning systems
< h01ger> carnil: thanks!
< carnil> h01ger: the problem which is to be solved with it is apparently https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1845743 (according to berto)
< h01ger> carnil: seems like. i've no flatpak and no snap and i dont expect to gain a dbus service granting privileges on a buster security update. (i've also seen it on bullseye upgrades but given that bullseye is not stable yet i wont complain here :)
< h01ger> carnil: do you think it would be useful if i'd file a bug about this issue?
< carnil> h01ger: at least the maintainer could comment himself on it, and explain on why the recommends, and maybe discussion can lead to that change is not suitable for the DSA, and we can drop it in the next upload.
< h01ger> carnil: was that a yes?
< carnil> h01ger: yes
< h01ger> carnil: ok. i'll include some lines from you here...
< carnil> h01ger: yes. I have no proplem if you mention I suggested to fill a but to ask to clarify the issue. But note I was only inbetween here.
Personally I think a DSA fixing this would be nice.

"Climate change" is an euphenism. "Global warming" as well.
