Simplly, get apt from freshrpms.net and also get synaptic, which is a GUI for apt and will help go around slow or unavailable up2date servers.
here's a little excerpt from an osnew.com article: Grab the apt and apt-devel packages (you don't need the source [.src.rpm] rpm) and save them to your machine. Then open a terminal, switch to root user, and install the packages with: rpm -ivh apt* Then run "apt-get update" then run "apt-get install synaptic" make sure you have superuser access to runs these commands, synaptic GUI will install an icon shortcut in "Main Menu/System Settings/Synaptic" Hope this helps, Medhat Galal -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
