I just wanted to ask one question as an interested user:
Can anyone clarify if there is any problem with the apt system of
package management, or are the issues with apt and rpm related to the
current implementations?

I've traditionally been biased toward Debian and it's derivatives, so
I'm not the most impartial judge, but my experiences with Yum and Red
Carpet have been horrific. Although I haven't used either in the past
year or so, they were both been extreme resource hogs that took so
much longer and did so much less than apt based systems.
I'm just unclear why there are these different systems when it seems
there would be a great advantage in leveraging the work that's been
done in Debian.
