I have to completely disagree with that. (At least the last part) I have
a fairly large network (20+ systems, some SGI clusters) and I must say I
have more trouble out of my Debian systems (put in before my time) than
any other system I run. And we run everything from RHEL, SLES, Gentoo,
Fedora and FreeBSD.
I wouldn't give a plug nickel to run another Debian system, ever. Using
apt is fine, I can handle that. Dselect is crap, and personally I
really hate how Debian handles upgrading packages (specifically config
files).
I've had my 2 Debian boxes b0rk so often after installing patches
because of that, that I rarely update them any longer. Fortunately,
they are no longer production boxes, but I've yet to have time to blow
them away and throw something useful on them.
