Which reminds me of my favorite funny line in an RPM description, on Fedora now: [root at localhost ~]# rpm -qi moserial Name : moserial Relocations: (not relocatable) [snip] Description : Moserial is a clean, friendly gtk-based serial terminal for the gnome desktop. It is written in Vala for extra goodness. :-O (!!??!?!?!?) And while moserial (and cutecom) have their definite uses (I have used both), to have the language it's written in as part of the description beggars the imagination....
