Yeah, aptitude (seems to have) some annoying startup delays (what's with that "loading cache"? It takes forever)... but aptitude is so vastly superior that I use it anyway. At a minimum, even if you never use the nice GUI, the automatic tracking of packages that can be deleted automatically when nobody depends on them is worth it. It seems like this functionality really ought to be in the libraries, not aptitude. -Miles -- Occam's razor split hairs so well, I bought the whole argument! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
