Archlinux's core don't grow. Can grow community repositories, but core???. Well, if i go to my abs directory I see in core, basic packages in a Linux distro. Glibc, gcc, make, etc. I don't see that core grow much. You can have Arch small and stable if you use only core, and basic packages of extra. You can try to use Fedora in a Server for example.

You don't have real update in a year, for example. You have security updates. Do you can update Fedora versions with yum?. Centos for example, no. I don't know if fedora can be updated to another version now...
If you want last version of kde for example..., you ca <http://www.diccionarios.com/consultas.php#>n pray to God. And Fedora is developed by Red Hat in many ways. Red Hat Enterprise is based in fedora. > 6) Fedora is not enterprise and there is no rpm-hell since fedora used > yum. yum+rpm even more simple to manage packages than pacman.

In Arch you have many support for make your packages, for fedora if you need a version for a package that is not in official repositories...., well, you have to go to rpmfind and search...., if don't exists or is for use in another distro rpm based, you need create the package. Well, you need download dev rpms now. Well, then you can't compile the package why the version of a dependency is not that you need... In Fedora if you need make "strange" thing..., you are lost. Of course, yum is very simple. Yum can't make all things that can make pacman. > 7) I don't understand pacman devs - Bash pacman equal works only 10% > slower than C pacman! Well, you can create another package manager if you want, :P. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list arch@archlinux.org http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
