apt

Apt is a good call. It predates yum, which itself predates yumv2-oops-dnf, and that beautiful porting gift from the Brazilian folks is still working hard at RPM management faster and more consistently than yum v1/v2 ever will.

Try PCLinuxOS (conectiva's great-grandchild) - its template creation is horrible as they've forgotten how to anaconda, but otherwise it's amazing.

that'd be dpkg, but I agree
