However, someone's mentioned to me that RPM support can be compiled into Debian's apt-get. Can I set up apt-get and/or rpm and/or any others on Gentoo Linux, or can I get Portage to recognize those formats? If not, I'd like to suggest that these features be added, and I'll probably go file an RFE or something. ____________________________________________________________ woof! woof!
