[Bug 178888] Re: Please sync nmap 4.50-4 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[Caroline Ford]

Political correctness
    To cultivate a professional image, we long ago capitalized all references to God in error message text and also reworded all instances of “fucked up” to “borked”. We have now also changed this warning message: “TCP/IP fingerprinting (for OS scan) requires root privileges. Sorry, dude.” A woman reported that it was “highly offensive and sexist”, that “times have changed and many women now use your software”, and “a sexist remark like the one above should have no place in software.”

I doubt anyone has issues with being called "dude"...
