debs have always been fine with me.

debs are a nightmare compared to a SlackBuild.

Long live the .txz!

Same here, generally -- as a user I don't really give a bother.

As long as I can avoid building from source / hunting deps for the most part, I'm good. I'll do this for maybe 10% of what I need; beyond that it's untenable.

If I were trying to publish my thing(s) I may care more, but probably not -- I just maintain several RPMs for other projects on Fedora/EL derivatives.
