Under FC1, I just rpm -e'd up2date. :)

As fas as apt goes, I like it other than its tendency to want to "upgrade"
to older versions of some packages.  (Example - I install a new version of
gaim from gaim.sourceforge.net using their SRPM built on my system.  Apt
will usually want to"upgrade" to the old version of gaim in the
repositories.) Yum doesn't seem to do this as much.
