There is a port of apt that uses the rpm libs, so you couldn't get rid of rpm in a direct way like that, even though typing "apt" would replace typing "rpm". But your book is probably a bit out of date, yum definitely has "replaced" rpm in the "what you type" sense for most uses, even though it too has been using the rpm libs. But it seems there is an intention to replace some or all of the rpm lib implementation with a python one, so it may go all the way. -Andy -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
