DEB vs RPM

[Shao Ying Zhang <s2193893@cse.unsw.EDU.AU>]

Hi all,
	Lots people have told me that there are more deb packages than
rpm. But just by looking at the web site rufus.w3.org/linux/RPM/, they
have 10434 packages listed.

	Now, do we have this number of deb packages?? Am I missing out any
gook web site??

	Anyway, we can always install RPM in our debian system. But my
concern is: Will it stuff up the dpkg system??

	Any suggestions are appreciated...
Regards,



Shao
