The following letter was received from Eric S. Raymond, who has sent it to a number of Linux-related publications and mailing lists. It is presented verbatim. "After thirteen years as a loyal Red Hat and Fedora user, I reached my limit today, when an attempt to upgrade one package pitched me into a four-hour marathon of dependency chasing, at the end of which an attempt to get around a trivial file conflict rendered my system unusable."

153 posts of non-stop bashing of ESR - how about this guys; stop bashing and start analysing.

Read the comments, Kaiwai, not guess'em. Or leave'em.
