Yeah, that's good - I learned that only today.
But from the questions I got about KDE's kdelnks, I doubt the debian one really
worked the same way, otherwise using it would have been straightforward ;-)
And as was pointed out, Mandrake was usually RH-compatible. Now it's kinda
hybrid between RH and debian, i.e. incompatible with both ;-)
Getting other distros to use the same system would be a good thing, indeed.
