You technically right, but I am happy to see the end of CLI-based apt*...

(I know that at the end it is a CLI, I just like the usage paradigm behind YaST2 and don't like it in HAM or CLI tools itself. Of course, I know in some cases it is impossible to avoid CLI)

That (rather, the original "Those who do not understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly." by Henry Spencer) is one of my favourite quotes ever, and over two decades later I still come across new instances where it applies on a daily basis :-/

At least feature-wise it shouldn't be that sad rpm is going to be chosen over deb. The package format itself isn't all that different. rpm just isn't kosher for some hippies
