Jim, if you meant why isn't it in the core distribution... that's a good question. I thought Fedora Core 2 included apt in it, but core 3 doesn't appear to. For some reason they seem to favor yum, which I stopped using after about 5 minutes of seeing how slow it was compared to apt (plus, I don't know if they have a GUI yet). I think up2date supports both apt and yum. -- Aaron Gaudio <prothonotar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
