Wow this is gatekeeping if I have ever seen it before. A package manager that tracks all files installed by a distribution of software is an excellent tool, and in no way incompatible with the Unix philosophy.

Unix packages are an extra. On true Unixen, /usr and /usr/local exist for a reason.
I'm incredibly curious in hearing your rationalization for accusing me of this 'gatekeeping' ???
