Which are the alternatives? glint? We already have a glint for debs.
Yes, I heard about that this evening, and there it is, sitting in
project/experimental (thanks Klee!), waiting for alpha testers to try it, 
and provide feedback (of course, some parts may be broken, that's why it
is in experimental). I wish I knew a word about Python to help with
that myself...

So I have to ask again: It is a lot of work to switch to RPM, what
are the benefits?

	Thanks,
