Re: Synaptic with Fedora?

tim,
  what you're looking for is the individual sources.list for the different
repositories.  you'll also need the GPG key from each for the rpms to be
validated.

  also, i recommend doing an

  rpm -ev apt

  and then going to fedora.us and grabbing the official extras apt rpm
frmo there, when you first run it you'll get a mirror selection screen.

and to bring it back up, use

apt-get mirror-select

-d
