    Which distro doesn’t ship nano? I’ve only ever seen this in embedded or docker contexts.

    Condolences for your vile experiences, though.

        The Debian LXC containers ship without nano, the normal (net/dvd/cd) install have nano.

        Debian does ship nano not vim.

      Yeah I find that nano is on basically everything but alpine or other minimalist distros for containers. As long as I have access to it on the host I’m doing okay.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
