Oh yeah.... I just tried to update 'smart' using apt-get ... This is but 
a very very very very very short glimpse of what happened .. *LOL*

file /etc/apt/apt.conf from install of 
atrpms-package-config-91-1.rhfc3.at conflicts with file from package 
apt-0.5.15cnc6-4.1.fc3.rf

file /etc/apt/preferences from install of 
atrpms-package-config-91-1.rhfc3.at conflicts with file from package 
apt-0.5.15cnc6-4.1.fc3.rf

file /etc/apt/rpmpriorities from install of 
atrpms-package-config-91-1.rhfc3.at conflicts with file from package 
apt-0.5.15cnc6-4.1.fc3.rf

file /etc/apt/vendors.list from install of 
atrpms-package-config-91-1.rhfc3.at conflicts with file from package 
apt-0.5.15cnc6-4.1.fc3.rf

REMEMBER: This is just the first few problems when using apt-get and 
.at-packages... I didn't want to use to much of your bandwidth listing 
everysingle issue... but you do get picture, right? There are many 
conflicts but these were the first conflicts with apt-get ... there were 
many more with many other packages...

In smart this can be solved... but yum and apt-get do not like 
.at-packages as I've just proved (at least not on my machine).

All theses errors came up when trying to update smart using apt-get. 
Now, that's what I call a "too strongly flavoured soup" - unless the 
intention is to break all spoons :P

3 hours from now in Denmark )
