[Bug 431091] Re: libstdc++5 removal breaks non-ubuntu applications

[Scott Kitterman]

The arrogance is the other way around. Ubuntu universe is community
maintained by volunteers. None appear to be interested in maintaining
gcc 3.3. We volunteer to make Ubuntu better and our collective judgment
is that gcc 3.3 is too old to be maintainable.

Personally, I find the demanding tone from some in this bug very
offputting.  Ubuntu is culturally a do-acracy.  People who do stuff
decide about it.  Nothing prevents people who want this back in the
archive from getting involved in Ubuntu development and getting it back.
The best response to this concern so far is the person that put it in a
PPA.

Arguing in this bug is extremely unlikely to change things.
