Developers would generally like their application to work. Especially in the hands of non-technical users. If you're going to take things apart and take responsibility for when something breaks, go ham, but when devs find that their software is broken for many users because a widely-used distribution packaged it wrong, then it's kind of a problem because a) users aren't necessarily going to understand where the problem is, and b) regardless, it's still broken, and if you want to make something that works and have empathy for your users, it's kind of an unpleasant situation even if you're not getting the blame.
