I have said it in the past.  I have had these little(?) issues with 
atrpms.  I don't doubt that Axel is doing what he does for a reason 
but for me, atrpms has been a headache.  Why does atrpms packages 
always require only atrpms packages to work?  Why couldn't I upgrade 
an rpm with a non atrpms without dependency problems?  Why should I 
have to force an update to a newer non-atrpms package?

Heck, it has been months since I used atrpms and I still run into 
problems with some packages and updates.
