Hello Christian, I'm not opening bugs by many motives: - I'm not still sure if I should remain using debian other N years, or stop now. - I do not want to annoy more people (yet) - People is working in releasing squeeze, If I could dedicate some effort, could be better to review pending bugs, not undetected bugs that depending who is talking aren't bugs. There are some more reasons, but I prefer not explain all of them You know that I was talking about more things than quotes in the other day words that we crossed. Debian want to improve user experience... ok... think again... instead of (or added to) the command-not-found efforts, maybe better a man debian.1 as the one attached, and all the others linked in that .1 example (and maybe updates for some of them with apt) try man -k debian in a default install. There are some things but... search them... you know, the prompt is very black at first login. If command not found is good, a man debian followed by all other official/practical docs I put in the example (based on the website). "Where", and "how" and to "which package" I should start filing bugs to avoid coexistence problems, is unknown to me at this moment. "When"... it is clear that I prefer not doing it these days that my blood is running a little fast. The example is in pod format (sorry), paste this in a example.pod and then read with perldoc example.pod How do you see this kind of things? and where should I fill bugs about things that nobody wants to talk about? how do I fill "the future Debian bashrc has the bashrc that ubuntu had some year ago" ? I don't see the "positive" way of do it. =head1 NAME Debian - The universal operative system. =head1 SYNOPSIS Debian is a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An OS is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. =head1 DESCRIPTION Debian GNU/Linux uses the Linux kernel (the core of an OS), but most of the basic OS tools come from GNU project; hence the name GNU/Linux. Debian GNU/Kfreebsd uses the FreeBSD kernel, but most of the OS tools come from GNU project; hence the name GNU/FreeBSD. Debian provides more than a pure OS: it comes with over XX000 packages, precompiled software bundled up in a nice format, for easy installation on your machine. =head1 GETTING STARTED You are using a program called B<man> that program has its own manual, and also talks about how you can search into the documentation and more topics. To open the B<man> manual you will need: man man Debian documentation is very extensive and detailed. This manual comes in each Debian release, and index which directions you can choose: B<General> man man man debian man debian_squeeze man debian_squeeze_upgrade man debian_releases man debian_help_and_contact man debian_bugs B<Debian Project> man debian_free_software man debian_social_contract man debian_help_and_contact man debian_donations man debian_mailing_lists man debian_news man debian_partners B<Debian Development> man debian_developer man debian_documentation man debian_mantainer man debian_teams man debian_translation B<Debian OS> man debian_system_boot man debian_sysyem_kernel man debian_system_init man debian_system_networking man debian_system_software man debian_system_policies B<Other> man_debian_history man_debian_fooo man debian_reference =head1 ONLINE INFORMATION B<General> Lhttp://www.debian.org Lhttp://www.debian.org/...
