In addition to the answer you've already got: I have a feeling that your question might be caused by articles in magazines that sometimes recommend Redhat or another RPM-based distributions because of the ease-of-use compared to less sophisticated installation systems. In that case you should know that Debian's native packaging system, .deb, is at least as sophisticated as RPM and will give you the same advantages. In fact we find deb to be a technically superior tool. -- Henning Makholm http://www.diku.dk/students/makholm
