Well, one would HOPE that the information entropy of a software tree was
a lot less than that of soup -- maybe even something like "zero" -- but
yeah, the problem is difficult all around.  Life would be so simple if
all of the other operating systems and distributions and hardware
environments but the one >>I<< work on would have the good grace to just
up and die...;-)

And it really is a lovely adage.  I'll have to keep that one in mind:-)
