Ok, I read both of those threads, and neither of them
addressed my question as asked.
My question is not, as you seem to think
"Which is better for me, apt-get or yum?"
My question is
"What are the considerations (advantages/disadvantages of each package)
which enter into such a judgement?"
Neither of those threads addressed the question I asked. Each of them
mentioned that such considerations exist, neither detailled what
they might be.

I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
