Should I use 'yum' and 'apt' in order to manage installation of package rpm
within Fedora ?
Is yum intended to manage (install/remove) packages which are available
'online' while apt has to be used for packages available on disk ??? Is it
true ?
Can you give me some enlightment about these programs (yum and apt)?
Does it exist some 'graphical front-end' as those that one can find with
Mandrake ?
(I completely new, and my system is not yet configured for Internet (Usb
Alcatel Modem SpeedTouch), so it is not easy to switch continuousely between
Linux (in order to try to install it) and a certain other system (in order
to be able to read the documentation on Internet ... ;)
Thanks beforehand,
Dominique

I give the command 'yum update' and everything happens by magic,
I have little experience with keeping a linux system up to date; the
systems I usually use are behind a firewall such that I cannot update
them. Only my home machine can access the net, and linux broke on it.
No experience at all with apt, nor up2date.
