And finally CSSU update gets tested under HAM only, not under apt-get and for sure not under fapman, and you know pretty good that "WFM" is not a valid proof for "it doesn't have the potential to cause trouble". Now you can take these statements as whatever you like, I'm not going into a dogfight about philosophy and I'm also not claiming you insulted me by telling I said "GTFO". I'll simply ignore you on this

btw:
You: I get confusing results regarding update-able pks, when using fapman. What shall I do?
Me : CSSU is meant to get updated via HAM
You: That's FUD. Deliver technical reasoning!
Me : Sorry, I'm not going to do this. If you think fapman is OK then it's up to you to prove that.
You: Duh, did you say "GTFO"?

:-( Think about it!

Perhaps you should think about it. This is not an accurate paraphrase of what Estel wrote, according to my dilligent attempt to follow your argument. In particular, the "I get confusing results" comment was not made by Estel, as far as I can see. It's difficult to follow reasoning when it is based on inaccurate information. If you think Estel did say that, I would appreciate it if you'd point me to the message in which he made that comment.

Also, it seems to me that comments such as "Fapman sux", which is basically what you seemed to me to be saying, require substantiation by the person making the comment, not by someone asking what you base that comment on. Your response is essentially, "Yeah, if you think Fapman doesn't suck, YOU prove it." That is not a respectable argument at all.

As to your comment that some people have reported problems with Fapman -- what program can you mention that people HAVEN'T reported problems with? I think that every program ever released, especially on this site, has had problems reported in connection with it. Whether various problem reports are accurate is the question.
