Wow. That what I wanted to hear. I've used apt from freshrpms.net before and it always worked well. It looks like all you would have to do is download and install the apt rpm and then type these commands:

apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade


almost. You have to set change your sources to point to the fedora sources... dist-upgrade doesn't mean *upgrade to fedora* so you will have to look up the proper repositories first.




Might I also suggest that if you intend to do this, sign up on the FreshRPMS general mailing list. It's VERY VERY useful and if you run into any weird dependancy issues, they're pretty helpful with directing you to fixing them.
