PS:

Imagine you are searching  packages by description. What would be
complex, if one tool could search all snaps and deb packages and the
output would show the result for the search of both, snaps and deps?

It's easy to provide.

I guess this is what users expect and I fear it will lead to most
uneducated computer users, since this "mobile phone approach" has got
pros and cons. IMO loss of knowledge unfortunately is one of the cons,
but that's off-topic.

Regarding the topic, one command could handle deb repos and a snap
shop, the same command could install a snap or a deb, search bot data
bases etc..
