Because Darxus accidentally hit a nerve with his "unless you use debian"
response, and the discussion quickly degenerated into some people
explaining to how apt-get works (thank for the explanation, BTW).
The "nerve" (and no, it's not worth aplogizing over. I should apologize
for responding snippily) is the incredulity that I tend to encounter when
PLUG members discover that I use Red Hat and am happy with it and that I
script in Python and have no desire whatsoever to learn Perl. I feel that
I am continually expected to defend my choices. Debian isn't the only
good distribution out there and Perl isn't the end all and be all of
scripting languages.
