I think its more likely that the Debian APT tools and package developer community will gradually move to Fedora with RPMs than Red Hat will push Fedora to move to DEBs or even a mix of RPMs and DEBs.

In any case, I don't really care if its a .deb or .rpm as long as the dependency tree is all in place. I just want apt-get to work. ;)

Having a unified distribution would be awesome.
