my absolute favorite thing is when you boot a debian/ubuntu system and you need to immediately install something with apt or a wrapper and it's like "NOPE, CAN'T! AUTOUDPATE RUNNING IN THE BACKGROUND"

gentoo has a bad rap but portage is easily the best package manager, both in terms of functionality and maintenance, and it’s held that title for over a decade
Its main problems IMO are the horrendously slow dependency solver (especially for complex installs), though it is easily the most *powerful* one out there, and the slow-ish install times even for binary pkgs. Pretty sure those can be sped up, I keep meaning to investigate.

(something something build the dep tree into a form that can be fed into an optimized SAT solver, or something like that)

I profiled this once; a shocking portion of time was spent in re, parsing package atoms and other stuff in /var/db/pkg. This doesn't seem right though, perhaps I did something wrong.
