IMO the question is valid. Many times a new or inexperienced user of a system (be it Debian or something utterly different) asks a question more in ignorance of what methods are available for accomplishing a task than out of a clear understanding of ultimate goals. Asking for intent is IMO justified. -- Karsten M.
