...and what are you going to do to me personally if this isn't fixed.

Sorry, again, you've had your question answered.  Turns out I'd written
a short guide addressing just the problem you had.  There's a project
underway to do what it is you're addressing.  And there are several

Your future benefit from this list will suffer from your attitude.
