Thanks again. This is an important and difficult problem, with competing

packaging.
I agree. Though I like the concept of package managers and curated
repos, compared to the dismal world of Windows, I also am not very
satisfied with the current state of things.
That's why I think the ideas coming out of this Red Hat think tank are
interesting and worth discussion. They put forth a possible solution
that keeps the existing things we love about package managers and our
distros of choice, while addressing these important issues in a
maintainable, flexible, and still secure way.
Reading this makes me realise how lucky I am not having to worry about
such issues.
