This sounds a bit like duplication of effort, IMHO.
It should be better to coordinate this with distro-related projects,
like Debian-GIS.
People there are working hard to get updated packages under Debian Repositories.

I do not know how these things work in the real world, but maybe
converting existing .deb packages to rpm with alien should do...
Probably better than the other way around... Someone knowledgeable
please correct me.
