Only issue being that I don't think redcarpet works with FC2 if you want a gui for apt try synaptic.Jeff Allison wrote:
Red Carpet is an awesome GUI based package manager that works a lot better than up2date, and it can use both yum and apt rpm repositories. I used yum before, and I agree it was slow, especially if you had a lot of repositories. Theres a GUI for yum called yumi, but I could never get it to work. Red Carpet also has a command line interface if you prefer doing things that way.Rodney Gordon II wrote:

I did a simple

what's up with that
AFAIK yum is coded in python, and APT is part c and maybe some perl?
They're just different programs, and yum lag is to be expected as it is maturing at the moment while APT has been out for a long time.
yum has quite a bit of features that APT doesn't and vice versa..
As far as a rpm-based distro though I'd stick with yum.
Or as an alternative view use apt its mature faster and works
