This is currently the state at opensuse and KDE and is a primary reason for all the new Arch users and all the new users of xfce, fluxbox and gnome.
There also may be some other reasons for all the new Arch users. ;-)
Arch has a great thing going and from what I can tell is headed in the right direction, we should all work hard to keep it going in the same direction. Maintaining a positive user/dev relationship of trust and respect is a big part of that.
If I would find that the Arch community and the Arch developers are generally unfriendly, arrogant or ignorant, I just would wipe my hard disk and install a different distro. I've also written, that in my cases I had the impression that the early bug closing was arrogant and ignorant. This was of course a misunderstanding as I know in the meantime. I know, I repeat myself - I opened this thread to express my impressions I had regarding these certain bug reports and in the hope that the devs think about this and won't close bugs too early in the future, and that probably can be discussed some ways how to reduce such misunderstandings and to improve the user/dev communication. Of course the users shouldn't write such "me, too" comments if they don't provide additional informations which help fixing the bug. And I think this thread became a quite substantial discussion with some pretty good arguments and suggestions. Heiko
