RE: [PLUG] "Distro" advocates


apt sounds very hip, indeed!

rpm is not like apt.  rpm is like dpkg.  rpm & dpkg handle installing &
uninstalling packages that you've already found and downloaded.  Apt finds
what you want, finds everything it depends on, downloads it all, installs
it all (via dpkg), and restarts server apps if necessary.
