Look I don't want to be mean. You have been having a hard time in the
last few weeks with FC4. Why are you trying to give yourself more
trouble. In FC4 updating rpms is done by yum. Why are you making
things hard for yourself and trying to use apt-get which is the
Debian updating tool?

Yum is better than up2date but not great. That's why apt, smart, and other utilities are available. Each utility has its strength(s) and weakness(es).  Different strokes for different folks.
