Ask on a Debian mailing list and you'll find out the answer.

Anyway, would we adopt a subset of the rpm(8) command set because it
accurately describes the functionality we want in lsb-install or would
we adopt a subset of the RPM command set because lsb-install will just
be a link or front-end to rpm(8) on RPM-based systems?
