More to the point, it's a catalogue of ready-to-go programs...
A catalogue that's necessary only because in all these years
of disparate Linux versions, thery've never cooperated enough
to just come up with an analog to the Windows software
installer.
Windows installers come in many forms, but almost without
exception they include all necessary files and are made to support
various Windows systems and versions with little more than a
double-click required to make them work. What the package
managers do is not "search for and install any application". They
list a limited list of programs that your particular Linux version
can install. And typically the names of those programs tell you
nothing about what the program does.
The irony here is that just yesterday you were telling me that I
screwed up by installing a program that wasn't listed in the
Suse package manager because you believe those are the only
programs that one should use.
What you miss is that your attitude is actually one of the classic,
typical reactions of Linux fanatics: Any possible problem on Linux
must be due to user error because it's not possible to have a legit
criticism of your religion. That pigheadedness culture is a big
part of why Linux is still a broken mess after 30 years of Desktop
development. (Which is not a criticism of Linux per se, but rather
of Linux as a desktop version. The people producing it simply don't
get the point of a personal computer.)
