   Obviously it's in the repositories, the issue is what the distro    
   puts on the CD! Of course there are limits to what you can stuff    
   into the space, so the distributors have a difficult job deciding    
   what to pack in and what to leave out. It really depends what kind    
   of users they anticipate.   
      
   Wine is also left out of Mint I see.   
      
   And slrn!

   I'm really quite busy.
