Re: apt, dpkg, dselect, and deity?



I also forgot to mention that there's currently quite a bit of work
going on to get Debian more user friendly at installation-time.  One of
the big initiatives is "debconf" which allows packages to have a common
front-end to ask the user questions about their configuration settings
during package installation.  You'll note that quite a few packages are
starting to use it as a default way to ask questions during installation
now.  Very nice stuff, and getting better all the time.
