Craig, for god dammit.
Haven't you read ANY of my posts!?

I've already stated, that I'm collecting the needed documentation to 
enter a proper bugreport at bugzilla.atrpms.net. I've stated that in 
this mailinglist, in my post to Axel as well as in the above post from 
me. Read it twice and you'll see I'm collecting documentation - read my 
post to Axel and you'll see a bugreport is coming today.

Read my posts, and do some research, and you'll see the issues raised by 
me are nothing but duplicates of issues other persons have had. And Axel 
has declared, he won't fix them - therefore Axel will not fix the bugs I 
file to him, because he hasn't fixed the other bugs which the same bugs 
as I'm reporting about.
The fact that Axel himself has declared, he will not fix it is enough to 
keep axing him, because it's very bad of him to release packages, he 
knows are buggy - especially when he won't fix it.

Summary:

1) My bugreport is nothing but a duplicate of earlier 'bugs' / 
'features' - reports from other users.
2) Axel already knows exactly what is wrong - this seems to escape your 
eyes.
3) Axel has declared he won't fix it - and he hasn't so far - also this 
seems to go unnoticed by you.
4) He has no valid reason not to fix it - the fix is easy (his own words).
5) He keeps telling about his wonderful packages, leaving out the truth 
about them - actually he's right out lying about them.

Conclusion: He's harming the community and therefore somebody has to 
keep pushing him, 'till he implement the fix. And that person appears to 
be me, since you don't dare to confront your guru.

I will not answer more of your posts until you have (re)read my posts 
and/or done some research (use www.google.com if you don't know what 
google'ing is).

Kind Regards,
Kristian Poul Herkild
