this would be a top feature. go for it.

i'm not familiar with .deb packaging and its handling of dependencies
always makes me nervous, but still i believe this is the way to go:
implement compatibility with as many packages as possible - and online
repositories - same could be tried for fedora packages (refer to BLAG
for the 100% free subset).

if you achieve such a goal as the above, The Cosmos and all his Happy
Friends will be grateful to you even more than they are now :)
