>>24 You meant to associate AUR with most programs and the debian part with "generally high quality software" but said them in the wrong order.
I know that .deb is just a file extension you can find that dpkg is able to use to install programs if you don't want to use apt. Does this mean you find a lot of stuff as .deb files that aren't approved for the package manager so it's a lot like the AUR?
High quality really isnt the contrast with Debian and Arch, Arch probably even has similar careful vetting of programs, its just that Debian's release cycle allows them to make sure everything is fully stable at every release. Arch generally never gives people stability issues but it runs a higher risk.
