Hi,

I can't speak for anyone else, but I much prefer packages that make
use of my operating system's package management system rather than
rolling their own. If I need a perl package that I can't get through
yum, I build my own RPMs rather than installing through CPAN.
I very much agree to that (well, s/RPM/DEB/).
But AFAIK we also need to provide packages for OSes without a package
management system. Windows being the most popular such OS.
Which probably means we should provide something that can work on its
own *or* through another package management system (very much like CPAN
and others, again).
