And a "software center" is IMHO walking in the wrong direction. The
packagemanagement system is Linux biggest advantage for normal users.
The right way should be making packaging as easy as possible so every
vendor could ship packages for their linux software. Maybe some kind
of meta specfile that could be used for build rpm *and* deb packages
and some common standards for packaging would be more effective.
