Debian's apt and to some extent even RPM would be a little better for the average user given that they're probably going to be needing GUI frontends to access the package database.
Given that the RPM Database is one of the heaviest loads on most of the RH systems I've run, I wouldn't want to use a GUI to manage it if there was any way to avoid it.
I don't install GUI's on servers anyway. More and more utilitilities are senselessly compiled to require X, but I either avoid them or install the bare minimum and never run it.
