Even if people were building RPMs for Jabberd2 there's still the
significant issue of stability.  Jabberd2's c2s component has
reproducable failures.  Not to meantion the memory leaks that have been
reported several times over.

I've begun work on the Debian packages for Jabberd2 but have no
intention of putting them into Debian's unstable distribution until
the server is more stable.
