CAAST and FLOSS - Acronym Wars

Hmm, lets keep this simple...

> Your genius is overwhelming.

Thanks.

> why do various linux programs not even manage to make the SCROLLBARS work consistently?

Freedom of choice. Choose consistency if you wish.

> SOURCE CODE is NOT documentation

Much documentation exists. Source code is the ultimate documentation providing complete ownership and control of a product.

> can you name some of these distributions that solve the dependency problem

Try Connectiva. Try using the SRPM files from Freshmeat.
For more rigorous dependency checking try Debian.

> I'm not terribly interested in *using* flphoto, much less *improving* it.

Then you are stuck with your "ThumbsPlus" under WINE forever, enjoy.

> Linux - for people without a life.

Windows - for sheep without brains.
