Debian is the only distro with this weird attitude of disregard towards upstream. I maintain two upstream projects where Debian unilaterally decided to rename the package. In one case I found out much later, in the other case it was against

Did you ever try a chargeback? With EU banks, it’s a bureaucratic process in my experience, filling forms, dealing with humans, waiting for merchant response, proving contact with them etc. US banks seem to operate on a magic word “chargeba
