Re: [Nolug] meeting topic story on website.

I think a good topic would be package managers, such as apt, emerge,rpm,
and even non-dist related ones like relink and stow. Does anyone have
experience using these? I'd like to know if anyone has experience using
apt on redhat. The subject can get a little complicated, esp when
building from source, changing configure options, compile options, etc
etc. 2 pennies.
