For the last time: I am saying that apt-get install should not immediately start a service, and it should not install the startup links in /etc/rc?.d.
I could give a rats @$$ about what is Debian's base system. Those aren't installed with apt-get install anyway. I could give two $#1+$ about whether or not an OS is secure out of the box. This is not a question about OSes, it's a question about installing packages that install services. Please don't try to steer me off course, and then say I keep changing my position. It's simply not polite, and rather silly. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> On Sun, Jul 22, 2001 at 06:05:18PM +1000, CaT wrote: > On Sun, Jul 22, 2001 at 12:40:11AM -0700, Jacob Meuser wrote: > > On Sat, Jul 21, 2001 at 10:26:38PM -0800, Ethan Benson wrote: > > > On Sat, Jul 21, 2001 at 09:02:54PM -0700, Jacob Meuser wrote: > > > > > > > > Oh, I guess anyone can say something like "Four years without a remote > > > > hole in the default install!" on the internet, where anyone is free to > > > > > > that quote is pure marketing. > > > > Marketing?
