Yes, I had gotten libranet in large part because I wanted to see how koffice was with an uptodate distro. After I installed libranet, the answer was I needed to get an updated version of koffice, which needed an updated version of kde, which needed an updated version of qt, which I couldn't find in a debian package. End of story for libranet. I have never gotten koffice to work well for me. I use vi and enscript for my word processing needs.
Yes, the rm stuff is important. I'll have to make sure I alias the rm command to something less damaging.
