Absolutely agree with mmeeks.
Me too.
There are definitely some costs. But there are also benefits - the "one-size-to-fit-them-all"-approach of our biggest competitor, is one of their weaknesses. Offering different solutions for different users is a strength in the long run - albeit more costly.
I agree.
And come on, how difficult is it to adapt from one package manager to the other. Joe Sixpack will figure it out in seconds.. the basic concept for the basic tasks is the same for any package management gui on any distro.. search -> select/remove package -> accept..
I also don't see where is the problem in having two different interfaces to the package manager. That's the whole point in my opinion. GNOME and KDE are different environments with different philosophies and different users. So having a perfect GTK clone of the YaST-qt tools is not the point: a theme would have been enough for that.
