glint, if I am not mistaken, is RH's GUI package management interface.  The
Debian equivalent for glint is the ncurses based 'dselect'.  The Debian
equivalent of RH's rpm is dpkg.  The latest version of Debian has a whole
bunch of package management tools in addition to dpkg and dselect -

1. apt - A spiffy command line package management tool.
2. gnome-apt - A Gtk based front end to apt
