smart keeps trying to update packages from atrpms when the fedora repos would do just fine, and atrpms seems to be down. I'm trying to beat smart like a white mouth mule into NOT using atrpms so I can finish up a half baked update. I've unchecked it, set it to priority -3 and it still goes there like a dog to it's vomit trying to update the open office packages from atrpms and freezes up. (Biblically speaking here) It's making me nuts. I don't even see the openoffice packages there, yet this damn thing insists on using the site. What gives? Is there a shiny red button to push? I know "red" isn't a good color to push, but I'm at that stage. This is maddening and I'm about half crazed anyway.
