Hi
I am not quite sure what you mean..but you can configure either so that you don't have to use the command prompt at all (whether you should do that is a different matter). But considering the the problems you had with rpm, try debian. apt will be like a breath of fresh air.
As I said before APT is not at a similar level to RPM. It is comparable to dpkg. Dependency resolving systems like APT work on top of the basic package manager and query the dependency and fetch packages. As long as the dependency information is specified in the package databases and formats it doesnt matter whether the underlying system is dpkg or RPM. APT itself has been ported to work with RPM for a long time though it lacks multi arch capability amoung other things
In Fedora as an example yum is the right tool to use. http://wiki.linux.duke.edu/ManYum regards Rahul -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: (plug-mail@plug.org.in) List Information: http://plug.org.in/mailing-list/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
