I know this is an issue people feel strongly about so here is a chance i guess to get involved. Hope this is helpful.

It currently has 3 available options. More information can be found at: https://www.debian.org/vote/2019/vote_002 Kurt Roeckx Debian Project Secretary The particular mail I first read was this one[0] and encapsulates the issue/dilemma pretty well. Having done a small amount of 'patching upstream' myself, in order to work outside of their (personal) development silo (read, diversity of environment, gcc, libc implementation, etc) I can appreciate that it's not an easy problem to work around, and somebody has to do the 'fixups'. Debian is probably one of the last distributions to make a decision about this, (being generally behind the curve) so it's interesting to watch their approach, and decision-making processes. |
