No, it's not hard at all - I don't think it took me more than one minute to figure out. It is, however, an example of a gratuitous change.

With respect to the OpenSSL stuff, I'm not talking about the GPL license - I'm talking about http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1571, one of the most painful security issues in recent memory and caused by a meddling maintainer. (Certainly, the upstream team could have more clearly warned him, but without the maintainers changes everything would have worked just fine.)

I understand you spend a lot of your free time working for free, and I appreciate your good intentions and the good that Debian and Debian's developers have done (e.g. writing lots of man pages for programs that have none) - but I do think Debian has some really questionable sides as well.
