Dear Abhinav,

AFAIK Fedora (being RedHats equivalent to openSUSE) also uses RPM and

There are broadly only two package management schemes in Linux World - one
is RPM & other is DEB.

RPM stands for Redhat Package Management
DEB - basically derived out of Debian.

Ubuntu is a derivate of Debian so uses - deb package management (apt-get
install "package name")
Fedora, RHEL, CentOS and others use rpm package management. (rpm -ivh
"package name)

95% of Linux distributions follow either of the above two
