"but how do you get apt-get?"
Depends on your distro. If you are using Debian or a Debian-based distro, you already have it. If you are using RedHat or another rpm based distro then I think you will want to get either apt-rpm or apt4rpm. If you are using Mandrake then I think you can use urpmi to do basically the same thing. http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/ap.../index.en.html http://bazar.conectiva.com.br/%7Egodoy/apt-howto/ http://freshrpms.net/apt/ http://apt4rpm.sourceforge.net/ http://www.linux-mandrake.com/cooker/urpmi.html |
