   Slackware has a full set of package tools, including slapt-get and swaret.
But, it does not contain Gnome.

   Actually, it's been more stable and easier to maintian and upgrade than
Red Hat was in the 4.0-7.3 period. The only application that gives me pain
is gnucash because it's the only one I use that _requires_ gnome.
