We got when it was still hot. Apparently, it's an exclusive club. I couldn't install it for a friend last week, either. Aptitude's automatic dependency tracking for uninstalling old dependencies is cool, but I've never understood why it was never moved downstream so that ordinary apt-get and friends would have the feature too. The situation with Debian's package management tools is pretty confusing. I'm still hoping for a graphical, full-featured Gnome application. Perhaps it is time to have a look at gnome-apt again. -- Ole Laursen http://www.cs.auc.dk/~olau/
