 I use about 150 packages and just one OS. if I limited myself
 to those then I wouldn't be responding to any pkg bug reports,
 most of which are to do with bugs on other operating systems.
 
 I try to match my testing to the change. I don't usually
 update packages which I don't know how to use and don't have
 tests, but linking in libpcap is pretty minor and didn't
 fail to build or a quick smoke test.
 
 In this case it probably would've been better to send a patch.
