On the consumer side, I prefer rpm/yum/dnf to deb/dpkg/apt. The later just really seems more like a collection of loose parts. I was surprised the other day that dpkg has no equivalent to rpm's `--last` switch to find when a particular package was installed. At best you can recover this information from the dpkg log (if it hasn't rotated out of existence) and/or modification times of the files under `/var/lib/dpkg/info/` if they've never been touched by accident.
