+<PRE>I personally found no practical advantage of using apt-get vs urpmi,
+while apt has many nice features urpmi is also solid and works
+perfectly in most common cases, the only problem you may have is with
+malformed packages or with erroneous dependency information, in which
+case the only advantage of apt-get is the fact that Debian takes a lot
+of care of having correct and working packages, which most RPM based
+distros does too (you may get problems with 3th party repos but that
+is another problem).
+
+Being a Mandriva fork we would logically stick with it's tools and
+packaging system.
