SuSE, openSUSE I'm sure everyone is sick of reading reviews of Suse 9.1 by now but perhaps this one is a little different. This is not an ordinary review in the sense that I don't provide lots of colourful screenshots, or ramble on endlessly about the included software versions and other trivial things. Written from the point of view of a Debian user trying to switch to an "easier" distribution, I concentrated on how Suse stacks up compared to some of the traditional Debian strengths.

Thanks for pointing me to apt-4-rpm. I was familiar with it from my days with Red Hat, a distribution that suffered the same ills, only solved in this sense by Fedora, but I wouldn't deploy Fedora on a serious server.


I wouldn't use fedora for a 'serious server' either, though I'm not sure why apt-4-rpm would be any better if its unsupported.
