I'll tag onto my my previous message in order to mention a few other
features of Ubuntu's package management system that i think would be
worthy of fink:
4) The ability to select any disk to use as an additional
repository. This feature would be no doubt be greatly loved by those
still on dial-up. While they currently have a technique for burning
packages to a CD elsewhere, it's not very convenient.
5) An update-notification system. Those using a Gnome/KDE desktop
might enjoy having a visible indication that newer versions of
installed packages are available. It works something like OS X's
Software Update, only less obtrusive.
Using a rusty Amiga 4000T, a shiny PowerMac G5, & a homebuilt Ubuntu box
Guillotine operator wanted. Chance to get ahead.
