> It does not take away that this feels pretty unnecessarily hostile, as Neal already informed him to work with the packager to resolve this: https://pagure.io/releng/issue/12586. It is not clear if the reporter actually ever did.
Just providing context here, this is what one of the OBS maintainers said in Brodie Robertson's video [1] about this issue:
> Hi, Joel from OBS here, thanks for the coverage! I can confirm that we absolutely did not want to have to resort to this, but did not feel that they were taking the concerns seriously, and when they resorted to calling us "terrible maintainers" we felt they made their position clear. I'd like to also let folks know that Neal Gompa (who opened the request to remove the Flatpak in addition to ours) manages the RPM, and we do not, and have not, ever had any issues with the RPM which is packaged properly.
With that in context, I'd like to believe while still a bit hostile, it was necessary since they really didn't care about what's being asked here.
