And by this I mean, that I prefer Debian and it is unlikely to change it to any other OS I know at the moment, but to tell one more time why I prefer Debian is a little bit offtopic here... Anyway, I would rather consider overall stability than the fact of something being packaged - most of the time I have to install software by hand once or twice a year and after that it just works. And I think it is better for me to use tar.gz, but YMMV. bye T. - -- ** A C programmer asked whether computer had Buddha's nature. ** ** As the answer, master did "rm -rif" on the programmer's home ** ** directory.
