* Because dpkg is missing essential RPM features (e.g. file and soname
dependencies).
* Because replacing RPM essentially means creating a new distribution,
whereas the depsolver can be easily replaced, and in fact you can even use
multiple depsolvers on the same machine at the same time (well, you can't do
the transactions simultaneously, obviously, but you can have both installed
and use one or the other as you see fit).
Sorry, couldn't resist feeding the troll. ;-)
