Is that the gist of it? > i did not mean to say anything bad about suse. i have been alive for several decades and have other experiences that make me question the title "professional" in things and when describing people. and not all experiences with the title have been bad either. it really simply seems to be independent of the word, whether the software or the person is such.
i stated and i meant it, that i have never used the distribution. this is the reason i wanted to know how it works. both to build things on and to get answers from. > It sounds like a simple problem overall, especially in SuSE. ;o) > yes it does. > It's those darn Debian users that confuse things while not following the > LSB, etc. Maybe one day they can use a good Linux distro too? Don't > you think SuSE people? ;o) > i use debian because the gimp people suggested it. working with debian and working with them have both been challenges. i can make my computer work and i can make software work, but i cannot make a place for myself in the world. at this point, it seems that it would take little boys to grow up or old boys to shut up or other women to give it up -- i dunno. does anyone know a good lawyer? forget the distribution and license wars. I am simply in need of a good lawyer now, myself. it is much more important than whether gimp-perl can build on suse or not. it is even more important than if gimp is better than other apps or can do this or has a useable gui. this one human being needs a lawyer. thanks, carol _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
