If you already know the intricacies of Mac OS X, for example, why  
should you have to learn some other random thing?  Mac OS X and  
Debian illustrate this concept very clearly.  In Debian _all_  
packages are configured to fit in with the Debian paths and scripts.   
That means once you learn how to setup one Debian package, you can  
apply that knowledge to any other Debian package.
