Yes. And it's one of the factors that makes the open-source movement
highly self-limiting. I don't know of any way around it. But that's
why I'd only recommend open-source solutions for mission-critical
functions if an organization already has all the expertise it needs to
support those solutions in-house and on site ... because if something
goes down, that's the only serious support that will be available. In
many situations, a limited level of support is tolerable, but not for
key and mission-critical production use.
