Much like the way Debian's apt and Gentoo's emerge
We dont use debs and gentoo is a source based distribution, comparisions are wrong, you are mixing pear with apples.
Thank you for answer. I don't agree that we are comparing pears with apples. It has nothing to do with the package management system but with the design philosophy. When suse was a commercial only distro it made sense to release a new version once in a while. I do think that this update model is obsolete now. Debian, Gentoo and FreeBSD, are all community driven distribution which provides the option to incrementally update your system. I can imagine this puts less strain on the openSUSE devs and also makes the openSUSE experience a lot smoother. I can imagine that enterprise users would really appreciate such a model -- Regards, Aniruddha Please adhere to the OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette http://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_mailing_list_netiquette --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
