Yes - from some.

Particularly with FoF there are two camps (and many people in between).
Camp one: The "order of the true solo", as it were, who are adamant that only Hackett ever played the FoF solo correctly, and all others who played it betrayed and distorted the original.
Camp two: The "advocates of artistic license", as it were, who think that since Daryl is not Steve it is okay if the way the solo is played reflects this change of musicians.

... and many people in between, I think.
