Hello All,

I was wondering about the differences between Libranet Debian and generic 
Debian. I believe that Synaptic is a proprietary Libranet specific Debian 
upgrade tool.

I have Libranet 2.6 and was wondering if on my next upgrade I might use Debian 
aptitude instead of libranet synaptic. I had a bad experience with synaptic 
recently and was wondering what my options are.

The bad experience that I had with synaptic was an attempt to upgrade 
realplayer pluggin which broke my mozilla browser. I think it took me two 
weeks to fix my mozilla browser with a lot of help from the Calgary Linux 
Users' Group clug-talk. I ended up using aptitude which seems no harder to 
use than synaptic.

I am not trying to start a flame war. I just think I might be interested in 
having a little more flexibility by going generic Debian rather than 
Libranet.

Cheers,

Michael Walters
