Unfortunately, not everyone - or even everyone who would be willing to provide such feedback, or even actively interested in doing so - is going to install that. In my case, I don't install popcon because it pollutes the tab-completion namespace for 'popd' in a root shell. That interferes with my workflow to the point that I've reluctantly decided to just not install popcon - with the unfortunate side effect that my package preferences don't get counted in this kind of statistics. -- The Wanderer The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
