Hi everyone,
I picked this up from DebianPlanet <http://www.debianplanet.org/> which I
in turn visited after I read the SlashDot post about the Woody freeze
starting soon.
The brief of it is my subject line, and the details can be seen in
<http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/gLSB/gLSB/swinstall.html#PKGFORMAT>.
This makes me a little sad, because I'm a Debian fanatic, but I guess them
Debian hackers will find a way to either keep dpkg going despite this
choice by the LSB, or find a way to migrate to RPM and still be a really
great distribution. :-)
--> Jijo
