I work on two programs which either not distributed by Arch, or our users choose to download directly (I don't know).

They both contained Python scripts, and I had to waste my time figuring out why they had broken when I had e-mails from Arch users complaining they didn't work -- and then keep replying to future Arch users with the fix.

I don't know how many hours and days of other developer's time was wasted by Arch with this change, but it certainly wasted a good day of my time over the last few years.
