I wouldn't say "lazy". Maybe overloaded and sometimes showing less
care than perfection would need. This is what happens to many people
when, being very skilled, they're involved in many projects.

(or, because it also happens to me, to less skilled people who are
also involved in too many projects)

I wouldn't like us to lose Jelmer's contributions to things floating
around samba4. I understand that repetitive such issues are annoying
to buildd maintainers...but I'm not sure that yelling will give the
itnended results.

To answer Jelmer's interrogation about keeping those things related to
samba4 in the Debian archive: yes I think it should be done
here. Precisely because it helps finding issues you just pointed,
Cyril.

So, really, can we de-escalate this?
