Because someone has to upload updates to all those repositories in several different file formats.

Windows doesn't have repositories, you just re-install a recent copy.

Chirp doesn't HAVE to be installed into Linux fron a repository. It can just be unzipped into a folder and run.

<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">Well the example I gave wasn't the point that you seem to have assumed.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">Chirp, I suppose can be installed on all Linux versions, and windows as well.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">My question is why Chirp, and other softwares for that matter, have their own repository, and not in the main repositories of all Linux distros.</span>

CHIRP is in Debian.

Maybe you're using the wrong distribution?

</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">I've added the DanSmith repository enough times now that I can do it without looking for the exact syntax.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">But I keep wondering why Chirp is not in all Linux stable repositories.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">I mean that if I want something like speech-dispatcher, I don't need to add a repository to get it.</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">As popular as Chirp is, can't it just be in all Linux repositories?</span>
</div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: small;">Thanks for any info, I have been web searching for an explanation as to why this is in general, but I have only gotten a history of repositories without really explaining an answer to my question.</span>
