Have you tried a recent version of synaptic? It has received a large
amount of UI polish in the past couple of months. In particular,
update/upgrade/dist-upgrade have been replaced by refresh/apply.
Searching, progress indicators, and context menu are greatly improved
too. I'd love to see a comparable tool for YUM.
