Yum updates

So, Just for grins, I tryed the YUM after I tried the Apt, guess what,
it worked. I'm guessing when I saw APT tell me that it needed more KEYS
and did the download for them, that it also took care of the problem
with the YUM Keys also.. Just a guess mind you... But now YUM ran just
fine and according to it, all the RPMS are updated.

Now for the next whacked out question, APT didn't agree with YUM on what
needed to be upgraded or updated, any ideas for that problem?

YUM didn't have a problem at all with the K#B or anything else
installed.... Do the 2 check the same repository? Is there ANY Syncing
between them? Or am I the only one who has had this problem to date?

Thanks again for the help given btw..;-)

Okay, I read your message...;-) I use the terminal, login with su -, get
the prompts and stuff... Now for the weird question... GPG environment??
lol

Reestablish the environment? How would I go about checking it to be sure
its right in the first place? 

I tried the apt and it wants to un-install the latest of K3B and and
memencoder.... I like the K3B and have moved away from even using
Winders for CD Burning, K3B makes it very easy... so... I'm at a stand
still right this sec...How can I check to be sure I even have the right
key installed? 

BTW... Apt didn't have a single problem with the "KEY"s that YUM had

Well, I went through h*ll with this including several list messages 
(folks here were helpful). In my case, it was my environment. You can't 
'sudo -s' to get this work done; you need to be root. 'su - root' 
worked here or you could log in as root. You will also have to 
reestablish your GPG environment as root.

(Thanks S. Joseph)
apt-get works great for me on RH9
