In my opinion this is the important part ("know what you are doing").
As far as I'm concerned, I'll try to help posters deal with whatever
FrankenDebian they created as long as they are putting real effort in
helping themselves first, describing the problem accurately, etc.
Of course, in practice this means most will have solved their own
problems without needing any assistance from the list ;)
Kind regards,
Andrei
