Irritants

Like unto sand in the cornhole:

• "Solution". Last seen in a SuSE install disk in place of the word "program" or "application". I swear to God, the next person who uses this word at me in this fashion will have their souls fried in a delicate cornstarch batter.

• Autoyast. 'Cos, you know, why in God's name would you take a hint from Kickstart and create a config file to match the installation that just finished? You know, so you can install by hand once and then use that as a template for everything that follows?

• Autoyast, part two. Some sort of checking would be nice...like, say, "Ha ha, you thought we would generate all the Grub entries that weren't specified? The ones that are necessary to boot? SUCKER!"

• Debian. Why the fuck does it keep ignoring my MIME options and attempting to open, automatically, attachments of all sorts from Mutt? If I want this sort of stupid, insecure behaviour, I'll go back to Outlook Express.

• Debian, part two. And why are there eleventeen goddamned user accounts, very obviously meant for system maintenance, with valid goddamned shells?
