You aren't comparing like for like. RPM is equivalent to Debian's dpkg (better in some areas, worse in others). Apt is a high-end package management system. You can usefully compare Apt, Urpmi and Yum but not Apt and RPM. BTW, Debian doesn't support RPM as a package manager. You can install RPM to let you build RPM packages for other systems but trying to use RPM to install and manage packages on a Debian system will eventually break it. -- Bruce You can fool some of the people all the time, you can fool all of the people some of the time but you can never fool your mother.
