Ive been following the thread, i made sure i read it right from the
start before replying.

i didnt add any fuel, just pointing out it was a useless argument thats
probably appeared on this mailing list a few times and never ever ends
well, no matter what the original subject was about, and i did offer
some advice to the original party, I.E. 
"
If you take the time and learn how to install Linux software correctly
without RPM, Debs etc you'll have a much greater chance of working out
what goes wrong when dependencies fail with an RPM.
"
which was my homage to the original subject matter, then i went on to
explain why my opinion was formed in this way, Then i replied to the
subject matter at hand Which IMO still isnt a subject that is approached
well at any time when people really get attached to one or the other, it
only ever ends with tears.

If you took my email as a personal insult :) sorry, wasnt intended to
be.

It was just to try and stop this before it Does actually get out of hand
and the list admins end up just dumping any future replies

anyway
