Oh good. I only got the one, apt-cache seems to work nicely, and it
doesn't spend half-an-hour loading plugins.
--noplugins if you don't want any plugins and everything can be either
removed or switched off. If you find anything slower, post to yum-devel
list with some bench marks.
Thanks; I knew apt-rpm had been done, but thought it died about when
mandrake+connectiva->mandriva
It was. Then Panu took over and now maintains both rpm and apt-rpm.
