My only wish would be to have package manager or packages available in the manager like the folks who use Gentoo or Debian have.

Linuxpackages.net has some, but what gets me is when you go to the site and look for superkaramba and it comes up, you download it and install it only to have it fail with deps. So you remove it, fire up swaret so the deps are fixed and do a --install only for swaret not to find it. (yes I have linuxpackages.net uncommented).

Thats my only wish. Outside of that maybe Evolution in the standard install.

Good point. I subscribed.
