I notice in the newsletter that Gentoo will move to the RPM format due to the idiots at LSB. That raises some questions.
1. Is Gentoo essentially going to become another RPM distro where we are condemmed to using RPM to manage packages and fight all the dependencies? 2. Does this mean the neat database, etc. will be gone and we will have the same problem in Gentoo we have in RH, Caldera, etc. - Play the game of find the dependencies. 3. Will any of the ability to know what's installed and track it remain? If this is true this is a big minus for Gentoo. One reason for adopting Gentoo was to get away from RPM nonsense and the mess trying to maintain a system. Maybe back to RH or one of the other distros. I guess I could always run apt-get! -- Brett I. Holcomb AKA Grunt <>< -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
