    You're a hopeless fanboy and because of fucked up idiots like you the world hates gentoo users. I'm positively scared by the possibility of getting the portage tree from the same mirror you touched with your filthy connection. I hope an axe falls on your modem cable and frees the net from just another fucking Gentoo preacher. To the guys who read parent and think "gentoo users are idiots": we're not like him. He represents a very noisy minority.

    >Damn, no Debian package for it. Oh well.

    What sort of mindless sheep are you? Heaven forbid the idea that you either
    a) Make a .deb file yourself, or
    b) Compile/install it outside of dpkg (horrors!)

    Forgive me, though. I realise that following either of those suggestions would require using your own brain and your own initiative, which going by your sig as a George W Bush supporter, probably *is* a little too much to ask.
