That's not a solution for Fedora at all. It's a completely different package 
manager (competing with RPM). It also works by keeping all the old versions 
of all packages stored on disk all the time, a massive waste of disk space, 
and also not compliant with the FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard).
