I find it very useful to know how every file on the system was installed, and which package installed it. For folks like me that like this info, some sort of package management is mandatory. For folks like you that don't care, then you don't need it. But just because you don't need it, doesn't mean that others may not. -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 17:59:00 up 169 days, 17:32, 3 users, load average: 0.12, 0.04, 0.07 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
