Have you looked better at it? It has new features, like the "update availability" sorting, new stuff for grpmi which makes things look nicer. And, i feel dependencies are not a problem anymore, as most is checked upon selection, as it wasnt before. You can set the mirrors, but not in rpmdrake. Removing and editing is done outside. I think that is a step forward for ease of use. My rpm package management _is_ easier, now than before.
