But that's the goal of most distros. If users want foo, they will
complain and so foo will find its way into distro. That's why using
_only_ distro-provided packages is a good idea. Not to mention having
many mutually-incompatible forks of RPM and different macros and
provides (try to install a PLD Linux package on Fedora or a SUSE
package on RedHat EL without resorting to --force --nodeps).
