As a user of both Debian-based and Gentoo systems, I am curious to know |
| 18 |
what do you find so annoying about apt-get. |

Portage is more flexible probably, but apt-get, with an appropriate |
| 21 |
frontend like Synaptics, is a piece of cake: in 99% of cases is click & |
| 22 |
go. And surely it makes more sense to use than rpm, on the command line |

(let alone the crazy Slackware guys :) ) |
