  Well, I looked at the recent dpkg2 spec, and it seems that they finally are going to integrate quite a number of features that were present in rpm for years...
  
  (Also, Debian lacks a good depsolver... Ubuntu uses dpkg packages, but comes with smart, which is much better than apt.)
  
  ((Not endorsing rpm, that said. I know the rpm guts fairly well and I do know what kind of crappy bugs there are in it, and how much poor design decisions plagued it historically...))
