A while ago I participated in a discussion here about the debian
package format. Quite recently I tried to spark up a discussion about
package formats on the LSB list but did not get any replies, hopefully
this discussion will be more welcome here. Constructive crticism is
welcome, so feel free to
I believe RPM is not suited well enough for this job, it tries to do
everything rather than doing one thing and doing it well. The package
format I'm proposing has a few features rpm does not.

BY the way, I don't feel comfortable about posting to the developers's
list, although I do lurk there.
I had some trouble installing some packages that needed xforms0.86.
xforms0.86, in turn, needed elf-x11r6lib, which apparently is
obsolete.
Is it safe to install xforms0.86, not including th
system directories, right?
Yes, that's what I mean: what's wrong with making rm -i the default
behaviour? We could do that by simply patching coreutils.

Fully agree.
While I support automatic generation of debug packages, creating a new format
for them sounds for me as creating new RFC for e-mails which bodies contain no

Actually, apt-get is more often used as non-interactive package manager, so I

isn't backed by facts,
One big fact is: Debian have tens (or even hundreds) of tools that use apt
