This is AWESOME! … why?

Your unilateral/undiscussed decision to "support"  "LSB Format" (nee RPMv3)
to please Mandriva (which is now using Mageia: good riddance!) led to
a zero-tolerance
	If you want "LSB Format", then I am forced to write the exploit for RPMv3 format.
opinion from me which has now led to a ROSA contract that specifically excludes
any work on LSB packaging.

I.e.
	no pay == "free beer"

You have already "helped" enough, thank you.

(again, aside to others)
Unsubscribe if you don't wish to read patch streams and
obscure -ENOCONTEXT comments. I wish a persistent
store for comments that I will be making: <rpm-lsb@rpm5.org>
is an idle niche that bothers nobody with an archive attached.
