on another hand, is Debian community willing to be not just GNU/Linux
centric and put some work on GNU/Solaris too? If yes, we could
re-consider.
on another hand, Ubuntu has its own tracking system, so GNU/Solaris is
not the first one. Even though Ubuntu is GNU/Linux system...
on another hand, GNU/Solaris uses different kernel and libc, which
brings many non-Debian-related issues into play.
