personally I'd want Debian style that allows upgrading of packages, and
de/installation of new packages.
Debian also has the wonderful ability to upgrade to a new version of
Debian using apt-get -f dist-upgrade, which means once you have Debian
installed, you don't have to do much of anything manually.
Time for me to join the distutils-sig.
