I know and relate to your pet peeve. Red Hat have done a lot, but I shifted to Debian because of the package management, particularly handling dependencies. They all have a lot of similarities, but the detail differences can be a trap at times.
redhat isn't the problem. I obviously prefer debian, but rpm is a good package management tool too. the problem is idiot devs who think that package management is a problem or, worse, are hostile to the idea of package management...or even to the idea that their glorious software might need to co-exist on a system with other programs without fucking them up. craig -- craig sanders <cas@taz.net.au>
