Personally I have never used up2date...since I have found apt I haven't
needed it.
Fedora is supporting and recommending using apt and provides and apt
depository as well as mirrors. This is a great thing. For example...if
the fedora group decides to go ahead and provide version 3 of samba for
example, then all you would have to do is:
apt-get install samba
This would download samba and any dependencies.
Apt is a wonderful thing!
Folks should poke around the old fedora site as well. The maintainer
seems to be right on top of it.
This might actually turn out to be a great thing for us RedHat users
that don't require support from RedHat.
