Debian GNU/Linux

The Debian Weekly News for July 22, 2003 is out. This week there is a look at the 2.6 kernel; LinuxTag; ServerBeach Debian GNU/Linux Servers; and much more.

Debian Planet looks at Aptitude for package management. "I'm continually amazed by aptitude, a wonderful and worthy replacement for the venerable dselect. With all of the "installing Debian" articles out there, it's amazing we don't see aptitude mentioned more often. If more of those writers knew about it, perhaps they would complain less about boot-floppies."

Branden Robinson writes "db.debian.org is down because samosa.debian.org died. A replacement is being prepared, but it might take a few days."
