[ale] Fedora 15



RPM and dpkg are roughly anaglous to each other. They more or less work at
the individual package level. Yum and APT are front ends for rpm and dpkg,
respectively.

However, as I understand the underlying formats, dpkg pkgs hold more info in
them, while yum and other rpm front ends attempt to piece that info together
for themselves. I could be wrong, I haven't really looked @ rpm since RH 5.w
(not RHEL 5.2).
