Hello,
http://fedoranews.org/alex/tutorial/rpm/ is a great tutorial
http://www.rpm.org
The best application with Fedora :
Yum and apt help you, they do the dirty work for you :
Resolving dependencies, downloading packages, installing then in the order.
yum.conf allow you to add extras repositories.
You can use apt on fedora core too.

I have attached a sources.list file.
Just download apt, intall it rpm -ihv apt...rpm
cp sources.list /etc/apt/
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade # this will upgrading the system with new versions of
software.
apt-get install nomdupackage
#Search package that have network in the name or description
apt-cache search network
#Why not ?
apt-get rermove kde
Best Regards,
Jean-Marie Renouard
