We don't control how distributions create those packages, and so we can't really recommend them from here as they might be sending the wrong message if people base their opinion on WPE based on using such packages.

Until we can get our own images up and running and published on our website, we should not encourage people to use 3rd party sources.

I disagree with removing this without any prior discussion, specially in the way this is being proposed.

I don't have opinions about removing the packages from the website, but just to say that we have some degree of control about packages, at least Debian+Ubuntu ones, because @bertogg maintains them 😉

Also Fedora packages are maintained by @philn
