[renamed] apt-get and apt moo art, etc.

[RU55EL]

A little bit of trivia that I just noticed:

Code: Select all

russel@debian-K55A:~$ sudo apt-get moo
[sudo] password for russel: 
                        (__) 
                        (oo) 
                  /------\/ 
                 / |    ||   
                *  /\---/\ 
                   ~~   ~~   
..."It's a Bird ... It's a Plane ... It's Super Cow!"...

I believe it said "Have you mooed today" before.

Here's another bit of trivia: apt-get moo doesn't require root privileges.

(Nor does any apt-get -s <whatever>)

Just updated stable but stable is stable.

Code: Select all

user@server:~$ apt-get moo

         *  /\---/\ 
            ~~   ~~   
..."Have you mooed today?"...

I notice that my cow is looking to the right but yours to the left.
You might like to try the following commands on your updated system:

Code: Select all

$ aptitude moo
$ aptitude -v moo
$ aptitude -vv moo
$ aptitude -vvv moo
$ aptitude -vvvv moo
$ aptitude -vvvvv moo
$ aptitude -vvvvvv moo

An elephant being eaten by a snake is not trivial at all!

Here's another bit of trivia: apt-get moo doesn't require root privileges.

Whilst we are at it, apt-get download too

What version of Debian are you running?

Here on LMDE Betsy (Debian Jessie) I get the same return for "apt-get moo" and "sudo apt-get moo". I wonder, though, if you're on Testing or Sid, if you get something different when you give apt-get root permissions.
Specifically, for your first post, when you used "sudo", the cow specified that it was "Super Cow", yet on your second example when you don't use super permissions, the cow is back to normal.

I'm running plain jane Jessie stable with Gnome. (Debian 8.3 updated every morning.)

sudo doesn't seem to matter:

I wonder if it changes randomly once in a while...

Instead of "apt-get" just use "apt" instead. Simplify Your Command-Line with APT instead of apt-get

So instead of say

Code: Select all

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade 

Just use

Code: Select all

apt update
apt upgrade
apt dist-upgrade

It looks slightly different, but some might say it is an improvement.

...By the way this works

Code: Select all

apt moo
