Comment (by czarny):

 I'm disgusted with the way bugs are treated here. 'It's not a pidgin
 error, it's your filesystems error', 'It's not pidgins error, it's
 obviously your OS-s error'.

 A formal bug reply: "Change FS" or "Change OS"?

 So when I submit a bug concerning memory allocation I'll get a reply, that
 the pidgins code is superb, but libc is wrongly implemented?

 If you won't reply to Windows bugs, as
 "Windows is too unstable to prevent that" and you "suggest installing an
 operating system" why the fuck do you support that OS? Either don't
 support it at all (including removing windows binaries from the main
 site), or live with what the systems got and start working round the
 instabilities of the OS you support.

 The same goes with FS change. Either write on the main site, that you
 support only a specific configuration of a linux box (and I'm sure I'll
 get something like 'Install a decent distro: Debian/Ubuntu' in that note),
 or start supporting all FS-es and be flexible enough to provide the users
 with a satisfying software.

 The "We're doing everything right, it's the world that is wrong" attitude
 is unacceptable!
