Okay, well it's not special coding. The difference is the location of files. The .RPM package expects things to go into specific directories. Debian has a slightly different tree. That's the difference. It's nothing to do with the code. It's all about the directory tree. You know, taking the VisualAge codebase or any other program codebase from one nix to another (say, Linux, to Solaris) doesn't require that much tweaking. Taking a Linux program from one distro to another just requires changing the names of a few directories here and there (outside of the source code). No big deal. -JCJ
