I will say again that the update process in Kubuntu is easier and faster, both from the command line perspective (apt) and the GUI perspective (KDE). The GUI updates installer is not very streamlined here. I see it is working now, it often seems to fail, I just thought it was not doing anything. I find that, if I may say such a thing here, the command line tools have better interfaces/options. I am getting used to rpm and zypper but it seems archaic and more difficult to use than apt and dpkg. Even the name "zypper" is not really pleasant.
I find that strange, but "de gustibus .." and all that. The problem with command names is that "all the good ones are taken", and that was so a long time ago. I recall that discussion on USENET before we had the commercially available Internet. So we deal with speeeeeling variants and "Foreign words" and names that have nothing to do with the function. If nomenclature is a reason for using or not using an application or system, then I pity you. Reality is nomenclature is an arena now for law suites.
