I consistently see this complaint, and it really rubs me wrong. Why
does everyone compare rpm to apt? Wouldn't rpm to deb be the correct
comparison, and then compare yum to apt?
More accurately, rpm to dpkg. I don't think the package format is that
important, though there might be room for discussion about the metadata
stored therein.
I haven't yet figured out what's wrong with up2date.
