Hi, this is a very high level complaint that doesn't bring us forward.
We have tools to easily create Debian packages out of external
repositories like Perl's CPAN (dh-make-perl) or Ruby's gems (gem2deb) so
it's not really an intrinsic problem of dpkg or APT. It's more that
someone needs to write the appropriate glue-layer that makes it easy to
create packages for all those software.
** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu)
