An update for Smart?

Hi Axel: While wondering whether to do anything about the libvpx deps
problem, which has now appeared on F15 a few days after a message storm
on the Fedora list, I realised that a new release of the Smart package
manager has been out for some months. I'm still using Smart although
clearly yum is now more mainstream. I know it's now in the Fedora repo,
but might you consider updating the version there?

Thanks,

John P

Hi Axel: I still like to use the Smart package manager, although in
Fedora it seems to have lost out to yum. It appears to have been
dropped from f16, although I still see smart-gui and smart-update in the
f16 base list as the f15-1.3.1 packages. The Smart site is now at
1.4.1. Any chance you could take it back into ATrpms?

I don't see problems using smart f15-1.3.1-67 in f16, but I guess that
may not last.

Thanks,

John P

I now have a revised specfile that has built with smart 1.4.1 in both
el6 and f16 flavours. I'll make it available if anyone wants it, but
I'd prefer to watch it in operation for some time first. I'm not sure
that it does the most sensible things with the kde 3/4 and qt/qt47 changes.
