Watching Linux distros (and yes, it is usually Debian packagers who act the most sanctimonious) shoot themselves in the face and then insult upstream AND the users of a popular package under the delusion that only the distro's self-declared experts are capable of making decisions is always a good reminder as to why you will never be able to waterboard me into using Linux as my primary desktop. Very sorry this is happening Team KeePassXC. https://fosstodon.org/@keepassxc/112417353193348720

Debian Users - Be aware the maintainer of the KeePassXC package for Debian has unilaterally decided to remove ALL features from it. You will need to switch to `keepassxc-full` to maintain capabilities once this lands outside of testing/sid.

@film_girl @keepassxc Its why I try to get Flatpaks from the software vendor directly.

@keyboardg @keepassxc I mean, this is the natural evolution. And I don’t always love Flatpak or Snaps, but I fully understand why so many pieces of software want to avoid the distro packagers at all costs. It’s a role that made a ton of sense 25 years ago. I think it is a role that still makes sense for non-GUI tools. But when packagers make decisions that negatively impact users without even communicating with upstream, that’s just not cool.
