Erm, where do they claim that?
Debian has a decision to freely make: Are we interested in allowing
users to install a 'lsb' package which makes their debian system lsb
compliant.
If we decide not to, fine we can even remove rpm (and alien) from the
distribution tomorrow if we decide to. Nobody's forcing us to do
anything.

Any rpm != any lsb package. Sigh. Do some research before flaming?
