Maybe I'm crazy, but I thought the point of fuzzy downloading was to get the
source that the developer posted, even if the maintainer is wrong. Are you
saying that whatever the maintainer puts should override the developer, and
that if the maintainer is wrong, we shouldn't grab the version we /do/ find?
Basically, if thats the case, why do we have fuzzy download in the first
place? (of course, this goes back to the debate that rages occasionally, and
is often vehemently ended with a defense of fuzzy ;P )
