I think Dag has also apt-get support. The main reason Lineox primarily 
supports apt-get is synaptic and lack of similar graphical font-end for yum.
Scientific Linux https://www.scientificlinux.org/ has some extra 
packages not in RHEL. They also have apt-get support and were the third 
to release Update 3 respin (Lineox will release U3 as free download the 
7th because it is then already one month old).
