I personally don't have any real issues.  About the only thing that
annoys me is that it prompts "Y/n" for installing single packages, but
I've just gotten in the habit of using -y.  Apparently other people do
have issues, but I don't know much about it.

I think you perceived my message as being negative towards yum - it
was not intended to be so, quite the opposite.  When I said "fixing
yum" I meant that in the general way of "all software has flaws and
can be improved".
