| Dispute between Linux gurus Alan Cox and Linus Torvalds |
|---|
Cox said that breaking faulty application code is often inevitable, but Torvalds disagreed. Saying he was unhappy that Cox was blaming everything but his own patch, even though this is what caused the error, Torvalds concluded "The fact is, breaking regular user applications is simply not acceptable. Trying to blame kernel breakage on the app being 'buggy' is not OK. And arguing for almost a week against fixing it - that's just crazy."
In response, Cox said "If you think that problem is easy to fix you fix it" and announced that he was giving up maintaining the TTY subsystem.
