(did not count how many threads) Following chains of references, I have an additional 150-160 posts to study.Sorry - didn't mean for it to be a riddle.

To quote a hermeneutics professor I knew, "Text without context is pretext." The other posts I read shed light on defining *my goals*. The other 150+ posts
have/will shed light on solving various side issues. I have a complete DVD set of Jessie(8.4). I have already done a fairly typical install with a Mate desktop.Over the next week or so I will do a series of manual installs that will begin with a standard CLI setup then use apt-get to install Mate:
1. using standard metapackages (with recommends activated) 2. using standard metapackages (with recommends DE-activated) 3. using chosen components of Mate (with recommends activated) 4. using chosen components of Mate (with recommends DE-activated)If everything required to experiment with boxer is on the DVD's, I'll try it also.
