Hello--
What does Gentoo have that SuSE doesn't, and why should one switch to the relativley unknown Linux? What does is do (or not not do) compared to SuSE?

Hello!
I just want to say "Goodbye!" to all SuSE users on this list.
The reason why I'm leaving SuSE is that I finally moved to Gentoo. Although I had both SuSE & Gentoo installed for some time, recent failure of my old HD with SuSe installed meant it's time for a change :-)
SuSE was/is my 1st Linux distribution and I started with 6.0 sometime in
beginning of '99 and was loyal to it all the time.
With 8.0 I noticed that I was forced to manually compile more & more
I think one of the reasons is because Gentoo is more like Free-BSD (they have "ports", one can fetch/compile/install "automatically" something - like in "make qmailadmin" - fetch & compile qmail, vpopmail, qmailadmin, etc, etc...) - that's why, in the first stage! Other reasons - I don't know :) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Doug McGarrett" <dmcgarrett@nyc.rr.com> To: "Gour" <gour@mail.inet.hr> Cc: <suse-linux-e@suse.com> Sent: Friday, September 19, 2003 3:16 AM Subject: Re: [SLE] Goodbye SuSE :-( the packages
and had a problem to keep rpm database in sync.
apt-get was a nice improvement, but not enough for a full satisfaction.
All in all, I'd like to thank all of you who are providing excellent support and friendly environment for SuSE users.
To SuSE I wish a great success in taking over the land of Evil Empire :-)
Sincerely, Gour
ps. In order to not break connection with SuSE so abruptly, I'll leave my subscription for OT list.
