...or there *is* no built-in packaging system.

There is none in macOS, and not everybody has installed any of the third-party 
packaging systems; we don't require them.

Oracle provides a packaging system for Solaris 11, but older versions don't 
have it.

HP-UX doesn't have one, as far as I know; the best you have is the HP-UX 
Porting and Archive Centre.

AIX doesn't have one, either, as far as I know.

The *BSDs have "ports"/"packages" and the like.
