I just saw this on slashdot.org: http://slashdot.org/articles/9804041623214.shtml they are debating the various package formats amongst all the different "distributions of linux" ... yet another thing I like about FreeBSD--the simple packages. What? Your system doesn't have something it needs, wait a sec, I'll go fetch(1) it ... blah blah blah ... It's worth a read to see whats going on over there. Perhaps we can pick up some ideas for filling the gaps in our own package implementation (I don't really know what they might be as I see no problems as an "end user" but ...) -Jr -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | John Reynolds C-TEAM CLE - Central Design Services | | Intel Corporation MS: CH6-210 Phone: 554-9092 pgr: 868-6512 | | jreynold@sedona.intel.com http://www-aec.ch.intel.com/~jreynold/ | =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
