So does the fact that I cannot aptitude (or apt-get for that matter) Freecell
Solver above 2.34.0 (having reached 2.42.0 and then 3.2.0) means it isn't
useful or does not exist? See:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=589387
If so, does it mean that Freecell Solver 2.34.0 is not necessarily so?
Furthermore, I should note that when I used Ubuntu, I was constantly annoyed
by the fact that aptitude kept emitting 7 lines of useless goblygock before
the meaningful line and 7 lines of that afterwards (for a total of 15 lines
with the meaningful line in the middle). See:
http://www.shlomifish.org/philosophy/computers/high-quality-software/rev2/
Now when I'm on Debian I prefer to use apt-get because it's much less noisy.
There's likely a lot of other software that exists and is useful and is not in
the Debian repositories due to various reasons. This includes Firefox 3.6.x,
which is already at 3.6.11 and there's also 4.0b8pre, while Iceweasel
(Debian's fork of it) is stuck in 3.5.x in both Debian Testng and Debian
Unstable.
