I should stop moaning and starting learning to maintain packages ;-)
Trust me, maintaining packages is a PITA at times - users, on the most part, are annoying
And then there are the "maintainers" that have never read the docs and insist on packaging everything (libraries, kernel modules, binaries, and docs) in to one humungus mush - To add to the insult, *every* possible dependency gets listed in the Depends mantra.. grrr... buffoons... autogenerated rules & control.. grrr... freaks...
At least if you maintain your own version, you can do it right ;)
