@peter I am, for one rare moment, actually glad to read the HN comments. The one from the dude complaining that blocking all downloads of the compromised package breaks all his setups because they're written to automatically pull a bunch of packages off the net every time they start was... :chefskiss:
@wordshaper @peter my technical literacy is at the level where 90% of the discussion reads like "why would anybody be fnorbing the blatimatronic quindlewurble instead of pretarnishing the distro with spleem 2.037?" and yet the stupidity of that comment still shone through to me like the Beacon of Gondor.

@wordshaper @peter <whisper>people do that?</whisper>

(Who am I kidding? Of course people do that.)
