Linux社区牛人竟然认为Ubuntu公司为害群之马[多图(3)

I've left some things out here, scripting languages that we all use toboot strap some of these programs when building them, or running startupscripts, but these programs make up the core of what a "Linux" systemis. The majority of them only run on Linux systems, while a few, gcc,binutils, make, run on all operating systems, and also make up the baseof the BSDs and even openSolaris. Let's look at the size of these different programs, based on lines ofcode as measured by SLOCCOUNT from David Wheeler:

The largest is the kernel, making up 40% overall. That's followed bygcc, and then X11. Then binutils, glibc, ALSA, and then man-pages (wecan't forget documentation!). So who is sponsering this work?
