Yep.
With modern screening in the blood supply (i.e. source of transfusions),
in this day and age, the ONLY way to get AIDS is to behave like a MORON.

Youre wrong here with MS guidelines... i recalll some installation
combination of Exchange Client, MS Office and i think IE where it was
virtually impossible to view web pages with IE.
I have a more recent one with W2K. Clean system with Outlook 98 and Office
97 (i think) where installing PowerPoint resulted in a non usable
Outlook...Not even installing Office 200 with Outlook 2000 resolved the
problem since system file protection mysteriously didnt allow a deletion of
the Outlook 98 files .. But what the heck... solution was to remove system
file protection by fiddling the registry, removing Outlook 98 files,
uninstalling Office.. and reinstalling Office. - the good old remove-
reboot- reinstall :-)

It's also in woody and stable; no need to switch to unstable (which
really *is* a bad idea most of the time).

That's the whole point, that on Unix you do _not_ overwrite the other versions,
because the shared libraries have their very specific version numbers in the file
name! So when you install another, you get another file on your system, but the
old file is still there intact, all other applications can keep using those versions
that they were linked against!
For example, when I go to my /usr/X11R6/liv directory and type:
$ ls *GL*
I get:
libGL.a
libGL.la
libGL.so.1
libGL.so.1.0
libGL.so.1.1
libGL.so.1.2
libGLU.la
libGLU.so
libGLU.so.1
libGLU.so.1.2.030300
libGLU.so.3
libGLwrapper.so.0.1.3
libMesaGL.so.1
libMesaGL.so.1.0
libMesaGL.so.3
libMesaGLU.so
libMesaGLU.so.1
libMesaGLU.so.3
So, you see I have 4 different specific versions of libGL.so shared library as well as
libGLU.so -
each application may use whatever version it was linked with. No overwriting, no DLL
Hell.
I hope you can understand it from this demonstration...

First of all, DLL Hell doesn't mean a ton of libraries; it means a ton
of libraries THAT INSTALL OVER EACHOTHER (like MFC40.DLL, for
instance). UNIX does not have this problem because we have this
amazing thing called v-e-r-s-i-o-n-i-n-g on our libraries.

They still have them. If you attempt to upgrade a library that
something else *depends* on, apt will scream at you; then you can
install *both* libraries happily together on the same system.

And how have you solved it, exactly? AFAIK, Windows 2000 still has
DLL hell, but instead of implementing library versions, they installed
some facist piece of software that writes over any libraries that an
application installer installs. That falls under the 'kludge'
category, if I'm not mistaken.
