Apt-Get Notes

apt-get

I use apt through-out the docs on this website. It runs faster than yum and provides the "extras" that I want.

Whats funny is that to install apt-get I use yum

yum install apt

Then edit your /etc/apt/sources.list, it should something like this:

rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/4/i386 core updates freshrpms extras
rpm http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/5/i386 core updates freshrpms extras

rpm-src http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/4/i386 core updates freshrpms extras
rpm-src http://ayo.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/5/i386 core updates freshrpms extras

rpm http://apt.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/4/i386 core updates
rpm http://apt.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/5/i386 core updates
## If you want source rpms uncomment the following lines
#rpm-src http://apt.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/4/i386 core updates 
#rpm-src http://apt.freshrpms.net fedora/linux/5/i386 core updates

Then run:

apt-get update 

Which will download the "headers" if you will and store as a list on your machine for when you want to install a package
