Sorry, but, that wasn't Smart's fault. It may have all sorts of 
problems, but it always tells you exactly what it's going to do, 
and gives you a chance to opt out. 

In any event, I don't want this to turn into my proselytizing for 
Smartpm. For me, it's working far better than earlier 
implementations, and does some things better than Yumex, so I use 
it. I use Yumex as well - right tool for the job is the 
criteria...
