Only because of the enormous efforts put in by debian package maintainers and it's infrastructure.

If you're a an indie developer wanting your application to run on various debian based distros but the debian maintainers won't package your application, that's when you'd see why it's called DLL hell, how horribly fragmented the Linux packaging is and why even steam ships their whole run time.
