+&gt;&gt;<i> A distro's job is not to judge the work of the _upstream_ developers as
+</I>&gt;<i> long as this is not a real bug.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> But it's to integrate software, and apply common policy to all of them.
+</I>
+
+ok, say a distro has 200 packages that use python, for a total of 20,000 *.py files.
+now what, the limited resources of a distro should be used to &quot;patch optimally&quot; the first line of all those 20,000 *.py files, just because this would mean to use a common policy?
+_regardless_ of the fact that those files actually run?
+
+this is so crazy in practice that... I don't know what to say. I'm refraining myself from saying things I'd regret.
