	emerge and apt-get come to mind. rpm is inferior (no dependency 
resolution) but still does a good job, and I hear autopackage isn't 
bad.
	Also, there was a project at some point that aimed at making Linux 
applications into self-contained "executable folders" (like .app 
bundles in Mac OS X). I don't remember the name, but I recall Rox-filer 
supports it.
