Nice try butc can you tell me how you got to that numbers, exactly? apt-cache search gnome | wc -l gave me 656 and kde gave me 556 (debian gnu/linux, sid today on powerpc) > Maybe there are better splits to imagine (seperate compilers from devel? > Client networking stuff from net (as opposed to server networking stuff)?) I need one for gnustep. I have a few more packages that are not yet in sid. some other gnustep maintainers do that probably as well. so the real number is higher than 61. I would estimate about 90.
