Over the years, I've thought of lots of them (here's three):
- Why did /usr/bin/grep disappear ? Yes, /bin/grep is still there,
but why is /usr/bin/grep not there now? /usr/bin/zsh is still
there alongside /bin/zsh. Curious. :-|
- At times, Debian can look like "OS by committee." Eeww.
- There's always some "gotcha" involved in going from (eg.) Woody
to Sarge. hotplug/udev, xfree86/xorg, ... Usually, these are
outside Debian's control, however at times, they can appear
capricious (a la /usr/bin/grep and /bin/grep).
Those are the big ones (for me). Of course, they're far outweighed by
reasons to stay with Debian. "RPM Hell" being a big one. :-)
