Sadly neither of those is even entirely accurate. For example, emerge is available for both Gentoo and OSX (and others?). Apt-get runs on much more than Debian. Apt works on OSX (used in Fink), Ubuntu, and with apt-for-rpm even on RH/Fedora based apps. Nothing wrong with those distros, but emerge on Linux != emerge on OSX. OSX's has trouble building stuff. On Linux, it's great. And if you get happy and excited that you think you're on a Debian-based box because you find apt, you're in for a big disapointment when you see it's Fedora. -- Michael Moore ------------------------------- www.stuporglue.org -- Donate your used computer to a student that needs it. -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
