I'm not, personally. I am, however very much against continued waste of
bandwidth on this increasingly off-topic thread. Please take further
discussion to the off-topic list, which exists for that purpose.

And no, the fact that the thing being discussed may or may not affect a
particular software package that runs under Debian doesn't make it "on
topic."
Thanks.
