I don't think so. The first paragraph just mentions that Debian is innovative and developed some cool tool. The other paragraph briefly describes (in a slightly different context) what is it good for. (BTW, these days every other major distribution offers ported apt-get or have some similar tool like urpmi. Do you think we should weaken the wording "most distinguishes" a bit?) -- Miroslav Kure -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
