[Tfug] The Joy of OSX, and the friction coefficient of goose droppings.

[Bowie J. Poag]

I think you've got it backwards.

Debian's policy is to ensure that packages fail the same way for 
everyone across the board.

Static binaries, kids. Friends don't let friends release code with 
f@(#*ng undeclared dependencies on obscure libs in the package that only 
the original coder and his damned cat have access to.

Cheers,
Bowie
