Why do you think that unless the solution is a silver bullet that it is
no good?

I don't believe that there is no good solution, only that not enough
ideas have been brought to the table. Expanding the source building
capabilities of Debian similar to that found in the BSD ports and Gentoo
would IMO help to ease some of the problems. An rsync solution would
also help those who are bandwidth limited.

I hazard to say that the current president of RedHat had no such silver
bullet, just a lot of perserverence and a massive well of constantly
boiling ideas.
