Hmmm. I tend to think we can safely assume people have yum or up2date
installed. If somebody is using smart then we can start shipping smart
repo files in the packages, too.

I'd say go without docs for now -- or is anybody willing to write

the wiki for more informations might be enough already. Ohh, and I don't
