Sabotage in Debian.

Posted by: Anonymous Coward on May 01, 2007 10:57 AM
Maybe Sam could explain why certain sabotage always occurs in Debian.

Here is another small example in a very long list:

How come the gcc man page disappeared just before the official Etch release (April 8th, 2007)?

It was still in the 21 Feb, 2007 snapshot, but had been "accidently" removed by April 8th, 2007.

Maybe he could explain why the debian web-site search engine is always broken (but works for some parts of the site).

0) A guide to compiling your own kernel,
1) cloning your windows XP/2000 installations using Linux (back-ups),
2) installing windows XP/2000 on a spare partition with Linux,
3) accessing and writing to Windows XP (formatted with the NTFS) from Linux,
4) a script to walk you through a Gentoo Linux installation,
5) remix those 14 Debian installation CDs as 2 DVDs,
6) the entire book "Linux Device Drivers 3" as a single web-page (ie in HTML format),
7) 3D acceleration for ATI cards (simple procedure, works for SuSE and Mandriva and Debian),
8) some discussion on the GPL and non-free third party kernel modules,
9) compiling the worlds best DVD/Movie/Video/MP3 Player and Encoder (MPlayer and MEncoder),
10) some politics, eg: Israel Fakes a Provocation for War (the "kidnapping" of Cpl Shalit),
11) an article suggesting many world leaders are Jews,
12) and an AMAZING comparison of filesystems.
