Zeppe-Lin is a lightweight source-based GNU/Linux distribution for the x86-64 architecture targeted at experienced Linux users. The primary focus of this distribution is to keep it simple, which is reflected in a straightforward tar.gz-based package system, BSD-style initscripts, and a relatively small collection of trimmed packages. The secondary focus is the utilization of new Linux features and recent tools and libraries. Zeppe-Lin also has a pkgsrc system which makes it easy to install and upgrade applications.
