From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You would probably get a better answer by asking a Rhino community. But a quick look at the documentation suggests you can choose: https://rhinolinux.org/wiki-rpk.html
I read about its rhino-pkg, which is just a wrapper as I mentioned. My concern is not about not being able to use each package manager directly, but rather on its packaging policy. Is it to follow canonical/ubuntu decisions? Or will it keep packaging what it as a distro offers to users on deb packages controlled by apt?
Yes, I cross posted it to !rhinolinux@lemmy.ml once I noticed it had a community, though I guess that would be the 1st post ever, :)
