Re:Why I don't use Slackware anymore... (Score 3, Informative)

Slackware has a binary package format you know...ever heard of the pkgtools (installpkg, upgradepkg, etc.)? Slackware packages are available on many sites too...linuxpackages.net being a big one.

Having switched from an RPM-based distro (Red Hat) to Slackware, I can honestly say that I don't miss RPMs at all and like having the option of using either source or Slackware packages, which I can actually use together properly...without dependency hell.
