<impish grin> The less time I spend hunting down dependencies, the more
time I can spend studying software and experimenting with things to see
what works. Then again, I'm not an administrator (thank goodness!), but
a programmer - and being able to apt-get install libraries painlessly
is a wonder.

That said, I have much respect for Slackware people; I just don't want
to maintain a Slackware system. Sure, it's job security, but what the
heck... ;)
