Star Murdock: Debian 'Missing a Big Opportunity', Join Sun
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Mon 19th Mar 2007 19:33 UTC, submitted by M-Saunders
Debian and its clones Debian Etch moves ever closer, and Ian Murdock - the project's founder - has been interviewed about Debian's politics, its lack of strong leadership, and Ubuntu's ever-growing fame. He feels that Debian is too enveloped in process and politics, making it impossible for anybody to make big decisions, thereby hindering the pace of development. In addition, on his weblog Murdock has announced he is joining Sun.

You're saying that as a so-called 'Solaris user' that going:

PATH=/usr/sfw/bin:$PATH
export PATH

In your .profile is too much?

You forgot :
alias awk='gawk' (not supported by SUN)
alias find='gfind' (not supported by SUN)
alias tar='gtar' (not fully supported by SUN)
alias vi='vim' (not supported by SUN)
...
No GNU ls.

That is too much...
Oh, and what about dpkg and apt-get ?
