rpm/yum is no better or worse than apt/deb. There are lots of
technical comparisons online, and they all conclude the featureset is
largely identical nowadays.

User-visible differences are up to distro QA and the attention package
maintainers put in their packages. (which is one reason I probably
won't update the Fedora Argyllcms package before september - I don't
have the time to sort between 1.0.0/1.0.1/post-1.0.1
patches/autotooling patches/Fedora legal patches short term, and I
won't push an half-baked package on users)

That being said, for the little time I've spent looking at 1.0.0, it's
certainly moving in the right way, and the problems are being solved
one after the other. Many thanks to Graeme for his hard work!
