Interesting! Did you work there? Do they have an internal package manager of some kind?

(in a meek voice) ...do they use MacPorts?

Not OP, but Googler here. We use an internal Linux distro for all our development. It's very similar to Ubuntu (so the default package manager is apt). People who have a Macbook use it as a thin client to ssh into their Linux desktops. So OS X package manager isn't really needed or used.
Guessing you're not on the iOS team :)
The year of the Linux Desktop
They cannot work remote if there's no wifi?

Apt -- that means it's a Debian based distro right? Interesting that it's not Fedora
