DistroWatch Weekly, Issue 272
[Posted September 29, 2008 by ris]
The
DistroWatch
Weekly for September 29, 2008 is out. "
A second attempt at
creating a comprehensive package management cheatsheet is the main topic of
this week's edition of DistroWatch Weekly. While still far from perfect,
the table lists more package management tasks and utilities than the first
version, but as always, corrections and suggestions are always welcome. In
the news section, Linux distributions warn over a hardware damaging kernel
bug, Debian publishes a list of supported languages in "Lenny", Fedora
announces a further delay of its upcoming version 10, and Linux Mint
unveils its first-ever 64-bit edition. Also, plenty of Gentoo-related news,
including an upcoming distribution build tool called "Metro" and an
alternative package management utility named "Paludis". Finally, check out
Klikit-Linux, a community project based on Kubuntu, which was added to the
DistroWatch database last week."
