Arch Linux vs. Slackware
- zalew 14y agoan OS comparison from 2009? a Linux distro comparison without even mentioning Debian? "similar aspect - KDE"?
- asparagui 14y agoLet us do a comparison based on the amount of Bob: Arch Linux: 0 Slackware: 1 Clearly, we have a winner.
- stox 14y agoSlackware actually has an infinite amount of BoB. Its slackfullness is beyond comprehension. Arch probably has some BoB squirreled away in hidden places, they just don't realize it.
- rohshall 14y agoamount of Bob? What does it mean?
- imrehg 14y agoWell, Arch: 1 Slackware: 1 or actually I'm running a server as Arch (besides a bunch of Ubuntus), so could be Arch: 2 Slackware 1 Clearly, we have a winner.
- kanja 14y agoSomething not mentioned here is arch's AUR helpers - like yaourt - that automate installing unsupported packages. That means that if you're a more casual user, you can install any one of those 18000 packages with a single command.
- dkersten 14y agoThis is true. I've always just used yaourt myself, but recently on a new install, I manually installed the yaourt package and realised that manually installing AUR packages is actually really really easy!
