(trying not to lose my temper...)

WTF?  are you people not getting or not reading my messages?  Gerhard  
seems to have completely ignored my input on the discussion, and now  
you are, too...

how many times do i have to say it?

1) our existing policy is too strict, and should be relaxed under  
some circumstances.

2) it would require a *MASSIVE* (wasted) effort to try to solve this  
problem via modifying our packaging script.  please RTF previous  
email of mine for details.  i will *NOT* accept patches that attempt  
to do this.  "won't fix" on sight...

so, of all the many ways i've asked for help on project*, please do  
not try to "help" by working on such a patch. ;)

also, given how much time and energy i've spent on the care and  
feeding of our CVS repositories, i wish i was at least being taken  
seriously enough that people read what i'm saying about this topic,  
and respected my views enough to reply (even if you disagree, at  
least address the points i'm making)...

thanks,
