Parent article: Debian's which hunt

I must be getting slow in my old age. It took me until the end of the article to see the "which/witch" joke.

I do wonder whether the whole article was written so our editor could get the pun in the last line in. (Which is obviously an excellent reason to write a very interesting article!)

Maybe, I'm looking forward to the follow-up "Ding Dong, the which is dead" if they ever decide to remove which.

25, and I got to the end of the article ("whichcraft") before I realized that I haven't read about a single witch hunt in this entire article.
