Reviewing this section, and it's pretty accurate (I can only review this
as the new user that I am) , but sometimes the pieces don't really paint
a full picture. For example, explanation of the repositories, I assume
to make people aware of what they are taking on when they select a
software package. But I think a mention is needed of where to look to
find out which repository any particular application comes from. So you
get this great explanation of the software universe, but need to know
how to apply your understanding when you are in the package manager
dialogue and about to select software. I see the way one would filter
for different software categories in the two desktop package managers,
and will add that, but can't find any mention of software selection in
the APT-GET manual.
