If there is a flaw in my claim, point it out. Everyone has the freedom
of choice.
If you can't read the package description in Synaptic, that's really
not my problem; the system is certainly designed for the literate to
use. If you choose not to take the time to read the package description
in Synaptic, that is also not my problem, they are provided so that
you can make that choice---why would someone here duplicate that work,
hrm? If you're going to install software, all you have to do is know
how to point, click, and read. If you need to ask a question about
what you're reading, then do so. If you use Ubuntu, you can use
Launchpad Answers, or a relevant support newsgroup or mailing list.
