How is RedHat's feedback system? Mandrake's is terrible. All they have
is a mailing list, and they tend to scoff at comments that aren't from
the "regulars".
For example, Mandrake's libcurl RPM doesn't include the curl-config
script, so you can't build against libcurl, just install binaries that
use it. At some point, someone arbitrarily decided curl-config didn't
need to be in the RPM. I pointed this out *twice* during beta 2 of 8.2,
and AFAIK it still hasn't been corrected. I don't know if someone
simply doesn't want to admit their mistake, or if I'm being ignored
because I mouth off so much. :o)
