After answer you can delete it if you feel it is out of place. But please answer.
What is Puppy official response for a software app/solution where there is no pet or current pet is not up to date?
I ask this because I constantly respond to go a search/get from main Ubuntu repos. In any case why not if in fact PPM has been set up with main repos.
Truce is that responces from others make me feel I am not following official procedure. I just saw this post from Mike Walsh
So question is:Mike Walsh wrote:...My other main concern is that by tying Puppy into all the mainstream distros repositories, it's surely another nail in the coffin of Puppy's uniqueness, no? I mean, to me, if ya like the mainstream distros so much, then run the damn things instead.....
(Don't forget, using packages from the mainstream distros repos usually ends up with an extended lib-chase.....or has Scotty got this whole thing down "pat" by now, so it's all to Pup's benefit?)
Mike.
It is correct or not to suggest to use packages from the mainstream distros repos?
Thanks ahead,

PD:
On Debian dogs we do all the time use a mixture of Official Debian, famous rcrsn51's Peasy and pets.
