I know [Trisquel]'s based with dpkg, but without apt/aptitude on top of it Trisquel is virtually a deblobbed and cleaned Ubuntu, so it does use apt/aptitude.

- tracker1 11y agoThanks... I looked through bits of their FAQ, and a few other places. The wikipedia article referenced only dpkg, not apt/aptitude. Though, pragmatically I load some not entirely free software on my machines (chrome proper, flash, and a few other things namely). I still think it's cool to have open options... I've tended towards buying routers/phones that I can replace the software, even if I don't start off that route because I like having supported, updateable options past the production date. I've been less concerned on the desktop/laptop front, but am actually getting more so.. given the lock-down methods that have been in the pipeline, I don't want to be stuck with the MFG OS... I've been looking into getting a couple C2D macbooks, so I can load linux on them to play around with... I'm relatively happy with my current rMBP, but the changes apple has made to the OS irk me more with each release.
