Sure it is, but how often did you read the manual before installing a TV or
Stereo or computer or....
You do have a point, but I feel the error returned by subversion could have
been clearer. How do you propose to do that if not waisting cycles checking?
Patch bdb? ask them nicely to do it differently? In the mean time we will
still be stuck with an error that is not very descriptive to say the least...
Anyway, if it were a non-issue, then why does it arrise so often on the
lists?
