> forced package management (as opposed to decentralized distribution of apps) Come on - downloading random binaries off of random websites and running them is a bad idea. It's always been a bad idea. This is the reason casual people get infected with random trojans, adware, malware, and so on, and the main reason Windows desktops tend to be such a cesspool. You can still do it on Linux, but it's an exception to the rule not the other way around.
