out of the red hat boat!

[Miki Lewinger]

Hi. It seems I'm ready for the transition to another distro after a 
couple of years unable to upgrade any redhat installation beyond single 
cases of success. So I'm either for debian or mandrake, and as I 
understand it both have excellent capabilities for upgrading my base 
system - but what is your oppinion about non-base RPMS ? Is the distro 
ready for perfomming perl or php extensions installations or would it be 
better to use the own programming language repository mechanisms ? And 
last, who has a more secure patching policy/practice, Mandrake or Debian ?
