No, I develop primarily on a Mac, but I deploy (mostly) to Linux.

Well, that's where we disagree; I don't use the package management system for anything specific to my application. I certainly don't need someone else determining that I should run some down-level hacked up version of the software I want. And I see no reason that implies any problems with either backup or replication of a system. At least, that hasn't been my experience.
