I am sorry but it will be not work in this case because you may have WP for
LSB for RH vX, WP for LSB for Debian vX etc. etc (every time the same version
of WP).
The unified packaging format can not solve problems with some applications in
some Linux distros automagically but may only cause additonal problems for
people who try to install and use packages from different distros in the same
format.
