Hi,

now that apt-get has been ported to rpm all we need is mirror support
for apt-get. 

And that is simply a question of mirror admins installing some stuff.
For general information about apt-get for rpm:

  http://apt-rpm.tuxfamily.org/

Simply get the apt-tools, install on your mirror server, and run
makeaptII
which I'll enclose here (of course you want to review it and change the
mirror paths and such).  The script has been tested and found quite
useable thank-you at http|ftp://ftp.uninett.no/pub/linux/apt (planning
to make it /pub/apt, and adding other rpm distributions to it very
soon).

The extra space needed is not significant, for the Red Hat stuff we
mirror here it's ~14M, the whole apt-hierarchy is a symlink farm with
index files added.

And apt-get is simply cool Red Hat too. apt-get update; apt-get
upgrade has gotten me and others from 7.0 and 7.1 to 7.2 with very minor
problems, no rebooting needed.

Nicolai
