I don't know what you mean with this remark.  I've used Gentoo, Fedora 
and now Ubuntu.  It's pretty much the same process for installing on 
each, overall.  Most Gentoo packages were binary anyhow, but even when 
you compiled, it wasn't vastly different from apt-get.  What sort of 
control do you want?  Usually there's a config file somewhere...
