I am replying to Jeff (#3) where he recommended:

and this is what DAG's FAQ (found at http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/FAQ.php#B) is attempting to teach me:

I have installed yum but...I am not sure how to "add the following section to /etc/yum.conf:"  

what is the command to do so?

and following the command, do i type 
"[dag] 
name=Dag RPM Repository for Fedora Core baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/fedora/$releasever/en/$basearch/dag";

all on one line, verbatim, in my terminal?

I know that i am an obvious wannabe but if anyone's bored enough i'd love the help

Chris
