Below information found by reviewing Mandriva 2006 Release Notes found
at
http://qa.mandriva.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/MandrivaLinux2006ReleaseNotes
The current state of smart in Mandriva is:
* default channels are still pointing to cooker repositories at the
time of this writing. The user has to change them to point to the
official Mandriva 2006 repositories after installation;
* smart is not the default update tool - urpmi is. But smart can
handle urpmi repositories just fine;
After reading the above from the release notes, I now have questions:
1. How do you configure Mandriva 2006 to have SMART to be the default
update tool?
2. How do you reconfigure SMART default channels to point to the
official Mandriva 2006 vs. cooker repositories?
3. Has anyone done this yet and what are the benefits or disadvantages
of choosing to use SMART over the default Mandriva update tool?
4. If this new SMART is good, why is it not already configured as the
default update tool for Mandriva 2006?
