While agreeing with your usability complaints about rpmdrake and its
various sisters, since it was me that made the complaint, I would
suggest you look again at 9.0. I was a major crier of "Disaster!" at
first, but that was mainly due to a defect in our troels.rsync6.2.pl
filter which caused a handful of RPMs not to be downloaded.
Mandrake has also made some changes to the 9.0 tree. There are at the
moment 19 RPM updates in Mandrake's 9.0-updates tree and 17 in
Mandrake's 9.0 unsupported tree, so things are looking much better. I
have 9.0 (not yet updated) in daily production and am now mighty pleased!
