Re: svn commit: rev 7223 - trunk/packages/rpm/mandrake-9.1

I take it back.

This log message is the *same* set of changes that everyone got up in
arms about previously when I didn't itemize all the changes.

Now that I have and tried to give a *brief* overview of what the changes
encompass, it is now too long.

Where as my previous explanation that said everything was in flux and
the documentation was about to change to identify everything, was
insufficient.

Demarcate the line in the sand if you please. And then cement it.

I can't keep remodifying my protocol to fit the current interpretation
of the policy on a given day.

I read what it said in HACKING. I did what it said. Each time. And I got
two very different results. Maybe that should be indicative of an issue
in and of itself?

Where did I err? And what parts should be removed.

I will only edit it one more time. And I will follow that protocol to
the letter from here on out, since obviously HACKING isn't clear enough
to be interpreted the same way each time.

I'm tired of wasting my time trying to *fit* a hole that keeps changing
shape.

So long and thanks for all the fish.
