I do have the ability to tell them how my software is installed.
I don't have the ability to tell them how updates for every other package on their system created by some random source should be updated, which is what I am discussing. Some packages may not be offered in tgz format, and when my software installs available updates for their other software by calling yum, apt-get, zypper, etc., those utilities will default to packages of type .rpm, .deb, etc.
