From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If I were maintaining a package and got a "request" worded like that I would tell the person to go fuck themselves. It's extremely rude to order people around like that.
Of anything the maintainer was extremely courteous. I will be extremely wary of KeepassXC in the future given that its developers behave like this. As far as I'm concerned this is a clear cut case of maintainer bullying and I hope Debian sends a signal by kicking their -full package out completely.
