Whenever you go "outside" the distribution and start picking up packages, be they .deb or .rpm, you invite trouble with dependencies, especially if those packages are not built for your particular release.
Both Fedora and Debian/Ubuntu have very large repositories, and for Fedora, RPM Fusion is very reliable for those bits that don't come with the distribution itself, so I never experience "dependency hell." -- Steven Rosenberg http://stevenrosenberg.net/blog http://blogs.dailynews.com/click stevenhrosenb...@gmail.com ste...@stevenrosenberg.net On Fri, Nov 22, 2013 at 11:40 AM, Paul W.
