Hello,
What's basically the difference between the two file systems - .deb and .rpm. Both are linux and I guess use the same mechanism of working. Or these work also in different ways?
I am new but interested to know this.
Thanks.
Probably too big of a topic to cover in an email. RPM grew up in Red Hat Suse world and DEB was born in Debian land. They both attempt to do the same thing, and the differences are fairly complex.
