dpkg on other OSs

Ok...

at work we are looking into package management for sysadmin stuff that we
do. Its not really my project but, as a debian supporter and a true believer
in dpkg being better than rpm or anything else that I have seen, I am
pushing for dpkg to be used. 

Mainly we are looking at using it under Solaris right now. I found
a few old references scattered on the web to people doing this, and
so far the best thing that I can see is to just dive into the dpkg
source and have a go at compiling it etc.

In any case, I figured I would throw out a message and ask, who is
doing this right now? Any successes or caveats? Really any information
would be great to help out.
