Please confirm that
you actually reproduced the problem, and didn't just take his word for it.

Let me see if I'm understanding correctly here.
- Under the most charitable of scenarios, your friend found a bug in Debian's
Testing branch
- Your friend didn't bother to look for an existing bug report against Testing, because if he had, he would have mentioned that important detail in at least one of his numerous thread(
s) in multiple forums.
- Instead of doing something constructive like file a bug report, he spammed at least four (and counting!) different venues with an average of at least 2 new threads every day asking the ultimately irrelevant philosophical question of "why?" And he persists in this behavior, even after being told that it's considered rude; the correlation (if any) between the probability of an answer and the frequency of the question is mildly negative.
I speak with all humility, because your friend's English is vastly better than my Chinese. But perhaps you could explain to him in Chinese that his English is even worse than he thinks it is, and is only somewhat comprehensible. Convey to him that he's not in a position even to
hint at the idea that any lack of comprehension is the fault of his listener(s), much less take an "OMG" attitude about it.
Perhaps also explain to him how impatient, even exasperated, people are becoming with him. The longer he pursues this philosophical quest, the less likely he is ever to get help on any other subject.
