I spotted this problem when I was drinking beer with my friend. I wrote this mail because it's not first time when grub is older in rawhide than in XXX. I can't really file bugs in RHBZ while I'm not with laptop, only with PHONE.

I saw this has a private email sent to you and cc'ed to your boss to make sure
it gets enough attention from you.
That with the patch sent in the earlier email without any context, kinda sound
like public shaming to me, but that might be just me, in such case I take back
what I wrote.

If the email was about: "I reported a problem last week, no news from the
maintainer but this sounds important to me, could someone have a look at it", it
would have been more than fine by me.

But then again, might be just a personal feeling or cultural differences.
