From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Welcome to Linux town, man. Debian's been bloody flogged into a million distros, but it's OK. Arch will be too.
Soon we will have forks of arch forks and each one will have a completely different set of dependencies depending on when the owners decide to freeze the package. Then someone will use it and wonder why theirs so many bugs
