I think this is more a chance for the big distros to be compatible together because there are a lot of differences between them (at example the most in /etc) and i don't think this could be solved with only an api. > what is the chance for us pacmen and pacwomen to survive? One of the big advantage of arch is that the building of packages is realy the best understable way what i know. The only advantage of rpm is that you can build more than one package with one spec file but it is realy harder to read the spec file than a PKGBUILD.-) It was time that they all come together because at this moment at example you can't take a rpm for redhat and install it on a suse system. I have heard that this is same for ubuntu and debian but i don't know it exactly. That's why the big distros need this and arch don't need it at this moment from my view.
