I'm using APT-RPM for Fedora Core 4 and it works great. It seems quite fast
compared to up2date and yum.

One feature that would be nice is the ability to view a changelog before
upgrading a package. Is there a way to do this with apt-get or apt-cache or
something? The only thing I can think of is downloading the .rpm file itself
and querying it with 'rpm -q --changelog packagename-0.1-1.i386.rpm'.
