DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: DSL Update



-- thinking about it more carefully, the dsl binaries are customised by john arent they? So this would mean re-packing as .deb files.

head - wall - bang

( My wall is getting pretty pissed off today.)

Yes, it would involve repacking everything into .deb files and essentially cleaning up DSL so it adheres to the Debian standards. Unfortunately, it would be much more difficult to implement an upgrade system which could handle other changes as well, such as a changing of startup scripts, for instance.
I agree with John, DSL isn't a main big-business distro; after all, it's originally designed to run from a CD.:)
