I'm going to speak for the no dependency package utile.

Way do we need a package utilise that's contain dependencies support, if you
can't deal with it chose another dist like redhat.
I like this dist because it's so clean, I code take that's it takes a little
bit longer time to install a new package.
I really like the clean ground that CRUX gives me.
