The files themselves are fine, it's

Paul is correct there are several versions on mint most are based off of
Ubuntu one of the mint versions is based off of Debian (Mint Debian)
and of course Ubuntu is based off of Debian also,---pick your flavor

I could be wrong, but I think mint started as an Ubuntu derivative and
moved to Debian as its upstream a year or two ago

I keep hearing about Mint and some place I heard Mint and Debian in away
that made me think maybe Mint is a Debian derivative. Then I visited
the website and it looks like Mint is actually Debian. Could that be
true?
I have not used Debian for years.

Make is a fancy scripting mechanism, and a very powerful one at that.
A "Make File" consists of a series of rules. Each of these rules are
designed to perform some type of task on demand. Some of the rules are
very simplistic, such as:

"make install" tells make to look inside the makefile and execute the

Putting a -- usually signals to a program that you have put your last

This is one of the main reasons I stopped using Ubuntu actually, they've
