DebianPlanet: Mozilla 0.9.1 Makes It Into Debian, What’s the Difference Between .debs and .rpms?

DebianPlanet reports that the steps needed to move Mozilla 0.9.1
into Debian in some form or another have been taken and the package
now resides in the non-US archives of the distribution pending a
determination of the legal status of distributing the version with
crypto intact. There’s also an interesting discussion on what the
real difference is between .debs and .rpms — an issue near and
dear to the hearts of Debianites as noise builds in favor of
standardizing around RPM.
