Definitely phpMyAdmin; you have to run one additional command, but in return |
| 6 |
all that PMA stuff etc. is set up. |

The next thing after setting up phpMyAdmin for me was Best Pracitcal's |
| 12 |
"Request Tracker". You can forget "emerge rt", since it won't work with |
| 13 |
Apache 2.x (see #54764), so I had to do everything by hand (setting up |
| 14 |
FastCGI and getting those damn deep Perl module dependencies resolved). At |
| 15 |
one point I stopped using "emerge perlmodulename" and started using cpan, |
| 16 |
because too many packages were masked (I admit, this was on hppa). |

And the next thing most desktop users would be very excited about is MythTV, |
| 19 |
but I guess that's upstream again. Setting up this beast is a real turn-off. |
