You’ve got to share the follow-up, “he clearly thinks he’s dating one of us, but if we press him and break the illusion, he might stop doing our dishes so we’re playing along”

It’s tied for puhmujuhvuh

Already there :D

You do.

My dream is to make video games for five people and not even care if they enjoy it

I’m sure they gave a level-headed, reasonable, rational response

Actually that one was a macroplastic

It’s like there’s an echo in here.

You thought so, but there was a teleporter

My bad, I was just trying to meet you halfway and not suggest that you don’t actually know what you’re talking about, because that would be rude.

I don’t really care what dpkg is written in but I do know two things for a fact: Ubuntu’s coreutils upgrade broke Ubuntu because coreutils first gets removed, and Canonical’s official response was “apt maintainers will have to clean up our mess”: https://discourse.ubuntu.com/t/migration-to-rust-coreutils-in-25-10/59708
My memory was wrong on one point: dpkg is the workaround, apt is what the linked post blames.

Fair point. dpkg, being effectively some scripts, suddenly lose access to user-level utilities for managing files in the filesystem, like mv, mkdir, cp, ln, etc.

It’s not that they depend on coreutils, it’s that without coreutils, the operating system no longer has the tools to (for example) navigate and make changes to the file system.

They’re saying “dpkg needs to put in the work to make an exception for our specific use-case because why should we change it”

sudo-rs breaks Ansible. Imagine pushing this nightmare out to several hundred computers and then not being able to reverse it.

They’re very open about not being 1:1 on feature matching.
sudo-rs breaks Ansible privilege escalation. They blamed the Ansible team.
The Rust coreutils package upgrade removes coreutils from your system and then fails to install the new ones because there aren’t any coreutils installed. They blamed the dpkg team.
