In the previous article, our computer newbie family, Mike, Diane, Mary and Carla, had decided they wanted GNU/Linux installed on the new family/business computer. Debian, via Libranet 2.0, was installed on the system, with appropriate business/office software, as well as the Gnome desktop environment. The next steps involved getting the system configured for easy use and adding various minor tweaks. Mike, Diane and the kids were not involved during the configuration phase of the system.

He, David. apt-get already exists for RPM. I've used it on RH 7.3 and RH 8.0 systems. RedHat also has their up2date. However, it only works for RPM's that come from the installation CD or RPM's that are updates/fixes. apt-get will work for any RPM that exists in one of the apt-for-RPM repositories.
