- steveklabnik 1y agoI'm replying to the general case of why. Obviously breakage is unfortunate. But it's not like there's no benefit.
- ok123456 1y agoUnfortunately, this will leave a stink that will take a lot of bathing and deodorant to mask.
- selfmodruntime 1y agoThanks steve. Sometimes there is no satisfying people.
- selfmodruntime 1y agoFinding critical bugs is always worth it. This didn't "break" Ubuntu, it was just a hiccup.
- ok123456 1y agoThe critical bugs were introduced by replacing working software. And this is just the beginning of finding all the bugs introduced. It wasn't "worth it" at all.
- selfmodruntime 1y agoI recommend that you look into the bug trackers of the original tools. There were a lot of bug reports that came from reimplementing these tools. It's also not a replacement - at all. You and distro managers can choose not to use them.
