I question this logic:
Apt does things differently as compared to yum. For example:
1.) apt checks *your* rpm database and not a repo.
2.) apt will install using: rpm -i --nodeps --noorder
Either of the above create a situation that can totally hoark a system.
I can name two or three more...
There are also other differences between the apt and yum, but these are
two major ones that come to mind.
I admit that yum does not have the plethoria of packages that apt has,
but yum is much more dependable
and stable. Besides, I don't mind compiling what I cannot get as a
package in yum (Plus, there are some
things that I insist on installing from source - ie anything involving
security such as pgp as well as development tools and of course, the
kernel.
