Yes. Someone whom you've disgusted from distributing binaries anymore.

You are talking double language here. On one hand, you sling FAQs and
allegations about GPL violations on a software package on which you own no
piece of copyright. You misattribute your inability to compile the package
to an alleged deliberate retention of files (so far you have failed to point
out a single missing file, despite me stating that any missing file would be
involuntary, and me welcoming any bug reports so we can get this alleged
missing file issue resolved). Not only you completely dismiss this
good-faith, repeated call for help, but you sling even more pieces of FSF 
and meta-GPL FAQs. 

On the other hand, you talk about "peace, and work together".

I don't think a sane person (or a person without an agenda of deliberate
bullying and pissing off others) would behave the way you have.
