The reason we switched that machine to Debian was due to the

this package is still missing.
You switched OSes instead of complaining to the repository maintainer
that he'd forgotten a subpackage? You must have a lot of time on your
hands.
Camel's back, straw.
Besides, both I and our sysadmin are much more used to Debian. We were
dealing with an old install of RH from our old sysadmin and couldn't be
bothered to work out the Red Hat Way(tm). Much easier to un-switch OSes.
