Well something else to throw into the pot along with the other answers, 
on several occasions I've heard Ubuntu fans cite the fact it doesn't use 
rpm (ubuntu uses deb) as one of the main reasons they use it because 
they don't like the "dependency hell" of rpm. Personally I think that 
view is at best outdated but each to their own. :-)
