    The Good and Bad PKGMNGR Experiences

    Hey guys

    i tried to keep the title short. but basically. im wondering which
    package manager system everyone has there best experience's with or package system all together

    There's alot of new system's these days, .rpm, fedora/suse's yum,debian, aptitude, the arch AUR, Yaourt etc

    and im curious about the bad and the good of each one from a user's point of view and your experiences

    My favourite ofcourse is debian and .deb with synaptic and ubuntu's software center, its extremely automatic and ive had no problems to date ( though ofcourse that doesnt mean theres no downsides, there always is a downside)

    Arch comes with pacman so that's what I use, and it does everything that I need from it quite well!

    .deb and apt do it for me

    My new blog. It's probably not as good as I think it is.
