Then there is the "synaptic" tool, which makes all fedora gui update

Since doing updates is a common operation visible to all users
across all distros, I've always suspected that synaptic was
the primary reason ubuntu was somewhat more popular.
Synaptic is definitely the best gui package manager I have used. Its so
easy to do everything, even distro upgrades are a few clicks away!
That has nothing to do with the packaging format however. Synaptic is
available in Fedora as well btw.

That's true, but of course it doesn't do upgrades as cleanly as on Debian-based systems.
