Any particular reason you have Quoted Printable on?

No. I dislike bash and don't use it.

And neither you or I can answer that question. I have found out what the
problem with this thread is. Most people are taking it as a religious
affront. Look, use whatever slings your dingy, alright? But let's keep a
few things grounded in fact.
1: SLP is beta, as is the rest of Stampede. How fun was DEB in its infancy.
IIRC DEB was not always an ar archive of tars.
2: What I am talking about is the ideal that SLP presents, not the technical
nitty gritty. Take that elsewhere. If you want to argue technical nitty
gritty let's remember that I am on the Debian mailing list because, guess
what, I *RUN* Debian. I guess that means, at the core of it, on the day to
day operations, I must agree with the format, huh?
3: No one should ever get so religious about any topic that they are
automatically closed to new ideas and ideals. No one.
