There are only three major ideas behind distribution support:

There are only three major ideas behind distribution support:

* make packages, built on OBS, reusable for 0install deployment model;

* make packages, built on [http://build.opensuse.org/ OBS], reusable for 0install deployment model;

* as a side effect, run Zero packages in particular GNU/Linux distribution using packages built on OBS without interfering with official ones;

* as a side effect, Zero packages could be installed on GNU/Linux distributions that OBS supports, also, Zero packages might be reused for OBS based Sugar distributions;

* support OBS based Sugar distributions.

* Zero Sugar does not support most of devil-in-details packaging features that make distro people's life so funny.

Zero Sugar is designed to support primarily [http://build.opensuse.org/ OBS] workflow. Each OBS package is generated by {{Code|0sugar}} tool and might be built on bunch of rpm/deb based distributions within OBS. It is possible to follow regular OBS procedures for Zero packages e.g. creating links and branching them.
