I'd say the natural tendency should be toward the standard system for
debs, as a built-in part of the system that produces releases for Red
Hat etc if it still does, not because that is the only way to do
things, but because convergence rather than divergence is the Linux
and Open Source way, and because standardisation is on the whole a
good thing, and because over decades converging on the standards and
thus reducing the amount of work that needs to be redone or breakages
from other changes is A Good Thing.
But I'm just an urban doctor, and would not wish to urge a timetable
or a rush in this, just to hope the compass needle points that way and
guides navigation a bit.
