Oh, and tuxchick, if you read the article say "urpmi smolt" aloud and tell me that doesn't sound nastier still.

Oh, and BTW tuxchick, you are evil. You have, by posting this, successfully gotten Steve Hillage's "The Salmon Song" stuck in my brain:

"See the spawning salmon swimming up the stream of time Leaping up the Falls of Man, to the source of Love and Light Guided from Atlantis to the Water-Bearer's jar. Far out-nearer in-and back to where We Are. (Hello!)

You know the way to Be You know the way to Be You know the way to Be Ah ah-we're getting nearer Nearer to the Water Bearer Ooh we're getting nearer We're swimming, swimming, swimming with the Salmon (Ooh! yr. swimming with the Salmon)"
