gyum is very small variation on yumi; it's mainly the same code.

I was under the impression from Thomas's description of gyum at
http://www.fedoranews.org/tchung/gyum/2.0/ that it did not look
in /etc/yum.repos.d at all, and instead used its own configuration
file /etc/gyum.conf (hence making it a hack and not a true GUI for yum
2.1.x). Is that not the case?

See also yumex for another GUI for yum:
http://www.fedoranews.org/tchung/yumex/
This one does appear to share repo definitions with yum properly.
