Of course, upgrading from redhat to debian will be even more fraught, as
you can't reasonably expect debian to know about redhat's package database
and I know that some things are kept in different places on the two systems.
About the only advantage of going Redhat -> Debian as opposed to Redhat ->
Redhat (other than Debian just being better) is that you just *know* it'll
be painful and the shocks won't be quite so nasty.
BTW, I'm sure there's a market opportunity for someone to write a whatsit
for converting a Deadrat system to a Deviant system.
