This is a misreading of the bug. It is from upstream stable kernels before 6.5 that include commit 91562895f803 but not 936e114a245b6[1].
In this case Debian's current process is good - it's kernels track kernel.org stable releases. This debian bug is responsibly flagging "for visibility" that a serious bug has been discussed and fixed upstream.
Linux Virtualization Based Security (LVBS) is an umbrella term under which we can offer various hypervisor backed kernel protection solutions. This is a common hypervisor agnostic extendable architecture in Linux kernel that can be used by any hypervisor to implement and extend Linux kernel protections. Different hypervisor frameworks (Hyper-V as an example of type-1 hypervisor and KVM as an example of type-2 hypervisor) can plug into the common layer to harden the Linux kernel.
Hypervisor-Enforced Kernel Integrity (Heki):
Heki is a proof-of-concept that implements new KVM features (extended page tracking, MBEC support, CR pinning) and defines a new API to protect guest VMs. It is designed to be merged with the mainline project. It is inspired from other private implementations currently in use (e.g. Windows's Virtual Secure Mode), but our approach is tailored to Linux specificities.
The Federal minimum wage has not changed since 2009, but the CPI captures effects like per-state minimums increasing, less people working minimum wage jobs, etc. No "adjust for inflation" calculation will capture the "pain" that every individual experiences from making a purchase, but this index is pretty close.
That's what happened. People started demanding that Nazis be censored on Myspace. I knew people at the time who were under the impression that being a racist was already illegal in some way, and thought that Myspace not immediately banning all of them made the site an accessory to the crime. The worst part was they seemed to be centering it around me because I was the only black person they knew.
The example doesnt seem to support your argument. The rationale the developer gives here is reasonable and looks like good stewardship of a shared library - the patch added a new API that was tightly based on termites' needs and provided little benefit for other terminal programs. What the maintainer wanted was a more complete API for the feature. The termite dev said he did not want to implement this feature in the library. This is also reasonable. Its his code and his time. So we have two people who can't find/commit to a solution everyone is happy with. It doesn't really seem user hostile at all, just that something couldnt be worked out. Sure, its frustrating when its an app you really like, but sometimes interests wont align even when it seems from the outside like they should.
That reading doesn't really agree with the maintainers' responses at all.
They say this is desirable functionality, but that they would want to subsume termites features in VTE and Gnome Terminal, and that was their rationale for rejecting the patch. Then they didn't deliver those features in a timely fashion.
