I know what you mean.

I avoid using commands/tools/utilities that aren't part of the Fedora 
distributions
when answering queries on the mailing list.

The exception would be commands/tools/utilities which are easily installed from 
other
well-known repos.  I try and
take care to mention the repo they can been installed from.

I try my best not to keep people guessing.  And if I do, I give the links to 
where
something can be found.

One of the not so nice things I've seen happen is people, not the most 
experienced,
install non-standard stuff on their systems and then forget they've done it.  
And
then they complain when stuff that worked for them before no longer works as an
upgrade changes a library that is no longer compatible.
