Ubuntu uses apt for its package management front-end and dependency management, so not only can one use with Ubuntu, one *must* use apt with Ubuntu. :) "apt" is analogous to "yum". "dpkg" is analogous to "rpm". > Does that get one out of most of dependency hell? As I wrote in another message, "dependency hell" mostly arises not from the tools being used, but the packages one is using them with. If one stays within the packages provided by the distribution, dep hell is unlikely to be a problem. If one is using third-party packages, all bets are off. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
