Show Notes

openSUSE uses RPM for its own packaging needs, with macros on their own on top. However, the distributions using RPMs are just a couple compared to the vast Linux ecosystem. How are other distributions handling packaging? Are they using bash scripts, functions, or even declarative languages? This talk will give a rundown of the different approaches that have been more successful in building a distribution on top, such as Gentoo ebuilds, Void Linux packages, and even some more niche packaging spec files.
