A .deb
package is very easy to install, just like .exe
in Windows, simply double click and install via USC. I wonder why some developers choose formats like .tar.gz
(it scares the hell out of me) which is complicated to install.
Probably not all Linux forks are compatible with .deb
; is it so?
Why Linux community does not set some standard for package management so that each and every software can be in .deb
format(I love this format because of its simpleness to install) and ultimately end users will be benefited.
