<dreamer mode>I believe someday RedHat and Debian will join forces and create 
an unified packaging system, "dependency hell"-free and with delta-package 
support. Put autopackage in the stew and we get simple clicable generic 
package, fully supported by any system. By then, its src-packages 
counterparts will also be 1-click-compilable, so we will benefit from 
anyone's patches. Maybe even an unified repository, so that all servers 
become mirrors. Everything will be GPLv10.1.</dreamer mode>

Uhn... What day is today?
