There are a HUGE amount of packages available in Linux.
Thousands upon thousands.
You have to keep in mind that even a program that, to you, is just one program, is actually made up of several packages.
For example, if you want to install the VLC media player, you have to install a package called VLC, but also a package called VLC-NOX, VLC-Data, libvlc2, libvcdinfo0, etc...
