A new linux user will use RPMs and he won't have to do any make or configure !! You can use my amazing system to create RPMs and next distribute them !! (I must throw to me flowers since nobody reply to my previous mail...... :'( ) Well I would like someone does the same to generate debian packages. With that we would be able to make packets with CVS and create beta versions easily without the help of external packagers who don't have only that to do !! Hey COME ON guys I want a reply even if it is silly :p How many distros use the RPM system ?? I have a Fedora, Mandriva uses it too... Which else ?? Phil
