yumi

[jery_wang]

the yumi rpm is from <http://cobind.com/yumgui.html>;. I selected FC2, despite the
fact that I'm running FC3. is that causing the following problem?

This doesn't follow, in that 2.2.0 is greater than 2.0.7 unless 2.2.0 breaks yumi?



thanks,

Probably, yeah.

It might and it might not (actually, it probably does). But the yumi RPM
certainly thinks it will -- note that it says "yum = 2.0.7", not "yum
>=
2.0.7" -- the package wants that exact version.

that sucks.  so, to get yumi working I need an older version of yum,
probably.  do FC3+ users prefer up2date, apt-get, or what?

Yum from the command line, mostly. I'd *like* there to be a nice GUI, but I
think it's going to be a while.

I've been using yumex for 3 - 4 weeks now and I find it very useful.
