If so, using apt on a production system would probably be > a bad idea? Depends on what package repositories you point apt-rpm at. If, for instance, a repository contains a mirror of the updates.redhat.com server, apt-get would get the same packages as found on that server. If, however, the apt repositories defined in your "sources" configuration files don't include a repository which contains Red Hat's errata packages, you wouldn't get them. Or if you enable repositories which contain packages with higher package versions, that would override the packages found in other repositories. - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/iIxF0iMVcrivHFQRAta2AJ44YzNTODPIqU1DF59kPz2EOKlPFQCcCfyJ ZGkNJoBpwTlVwnlvAFCdayA= =ZyFV -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
