uh, i nuked one or another fedora install. it wasn't hard when I tried (especially when trying to install rpms that were non-standard from elsewhere), but I seem to have heard from places that rpm got better. whatevva.. that circular dependency thing is annoying in a way. but renaming libs entirely, snap!, just like that seems like really bad practice to me. then again... I wouldn't necessarily want to create and maintain all those packages cm does myself if I don't have to. ... .. if I don't have to...
