It supports installing and updating Helix GNOME on Solaris, the OS (only
supported on Sparc, x86 was a twisted idea to begin with). Just like it
would with RedHat, Debian, etc.
Helix GNOME gets an installation channel, and the screenshots I posted the
other week show Debian having a channel. Obviously the other main distros
do, and they're thinking of supporting a Solaris OS updates channel, but not
for sure.
'twill be tres cool. Think - apt-like software with a GUI for every
distribution!
