Linux distributor Mandrakesoft has bought Brazilian-based Linux vendor Conectiva for $2.3 million, officials said Thursday.
The definitive merger agreement announcement comes nearly a year after Mandrakesoft emerged from the French bankruptcy courts. The company's Conectiva acquisition is the continuation of its strategy to grow its Linux product, Mandrakelinux, through both internal development and external purchases.
