“You’re allowed to build three a packages on night after full moon and
a package a day each day after that. Noarch packages demand a
sacrifice of a woman who have never known a man and a goat who have
never known a common platform service engineer. The blood of a goat
should never touch a BUILD area of a package, nor shall its milk. An
elder engineer is allowed to ArchOverride on moonless nights before
the sun rises, but he shall sacrifice two of his fattest utilities to
avoid wrath of the multiarch gods. Under no circumstances shall the
build run after the morning birds start to sing for it would wreak
havoc upon the Heavens and Earth and a curse will be laid upon his
coworkers and cries, Java and gnashing of tears will know no end.”
