EXCELLENT! I would vote for that in a heartbeat! On Wed, 2005-08-10 at 13:11 -0400, Murphy, James (Tech) wrote:
Actually I think that Suse should lighten the load with Kde most people do not need all the crap that comes with KDE and if necessary just have it in a repository , FreeBSD has a kde lite which is quite good. With open suse I guess legal issues still affect what software can or cannot be included , but a standard list of YAST sources such as packman ect should be included but disabled , this would be great for newbies who want to install software but don’t know how.

No, please. YaST is doing fine, why change to APT?
For all the software out there that is not included in SUSE itself, like playing DVD's, wmdrawer, ccze, Even with the amount of software available with each distro, there will always be some things that will NOT be included and that a user would like.
I have had little or no trouble getting anything I wanted installed on 9.3 However there are occasions where I need to revert to the command line. One of the greatest strengths of SuSE is YaST and I would hate to see it tampered with in the slightest. If alternate methods are Incorporated I would like to see them stay just that - alternate methods with no attempt to integrate them with YaST.
