Well, I was helping some users recently who where trying to install programs on Debian Squeeze with Software Centre (the GUI).
It hung up 50 % through one of the programs they were installing, but did not die gracefully with error code. It just went on doing nothing. Both these users were not at a level to send bug reports, so I ended up using aptitude to do the installs for them without problem. Squeeze is Debian stable, oops. I also had to get sound (alsa) going for one of them. Upon looking it up from google I saw 80 % of the answers were kind of wrong and towards the end saw a short instruction that worked well. I have almost no time in the last month, but the old adage "see a need and fill it" worked out. If it's too difficult why do we expect people to adopt GNU/Linux Linux has come a very long way and only has a little farther to go. It is still about the user experience. Any other thoughts?
