Thanks for the interesting information. I've never used any apt-rpm based distribution[1], so my impression of apt is mostly from the native apt-deb, which doesn't seem to have that problem. (I know Debian pre-resolves dependencies to the package level during package build time, which makes the job a bit easier than what apt-rpm and swup have to do). [1] We made the first release of swup for TSL a bit before apt-rpm was released, and I never really used any other rpm based distribution after that :) Øystein -- PHP: the wu-ftpd of www. _______________________________________________ tsl-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trustix.org/mailman/listinfo/tsl-discuss
