I am very new to Linux, and currently learning CentOS and Debian. I have noticed a lot of items are similar to each distro of Linux; however, one thing that stands out is the utility/mechanism used to install packages and/or applications.
CentOS uses what I think is RPM, and YUM; however, it looks like Debian uses DEB and APT-GET to install packages and applications.
In addition, it appears that more distros use the deb package manager; however, not sure if this is true - is it?
Should I learn both and the thoughts behind each distro build? Little over-whelmed right now, but excited to learn.
Thank you
