Nononono.

we have RT installed from Jesse's tarball.

We'd like to migrate to having RT installed from Jesse's .deb package.[1]

There are (always) various subtle differences in where "the .deb" wants 
stuff as opposed to where the default tarball install would have put it. 
THOSE are the kind of things I'm looking for.

[1] I almost left out ".deb" in that sentence. Why it cracked me up 
during the re-read-before-send process is left as an exercise for the 
reader.
