Actually it works very well for me.

Yes it scans the DB. I ended up dumping all three CD's onto a separate
partition, and redirected the setup to them.

The updates via download work fine, provided you've defined your
sources.

Normally if it's sitting there "doing nothing", it's because RPM itself
has failed... You might want to try an "rpm --rebuilddb" and have a cup
of coffee.

BTW: while it's downloading the progress bar does NOT move! So it can
look like it's hung up while it is really downloading the files you
wanted.

Gkrellm showed me it was working fine.
