<A NAME="debian"><H1>Debian Packages</H1></A>
Many people, including the author, find it very convenient to download
software from the Debian package pages:
<A HREF="http://www.debian.org/Packages/stable/">
http://www.debian.org/Packages/stable/</A> or (preferably)
<A HREF="http://www.debian.org/Packages/unstable/">
http://www.debian.org/Packages/unstable/</A>.
In the unstable Debian distribution you can normally find the latest
version of a specific package. (The word unstable is in this context - of
downloading source codes - quite
misleading.)
<p>
At the Debian sites you can find all sorts of software,
with precise information on which versions of other packages
that the software depends on. If you are running a Debian Linux system,
you can download precompiled packages and install them with a single
command. However, the description in this appendix is based on compiling
the source code, which is a more general approach. The Debian packages
are also distributed as tar files with the complete source code; just focus at
the ``Source Code'' in small fonts under the ``Go To Download'' button.
