Description-en: Debian Frequently Asked Questions
In this package you will find the Debian GNU/Linux FAQ, which gives
frequently asked questions (with their answers!) about the Debian distribution
(Debian GNU/Linux and others) and about the Debian project.
Some answers assume some knowledge of Unix-like operating systems.
However, as little prior knowledge as possible is assumed: answers to general
beginners questions will be kept simple.
