>Nowhere does anyone advise to reinstall. Can you quote your source please. I guess other replies cleared that for you. >managing software with yum is just plainly broken compared to apt. >You're trolling. How is it broken? for example installing something which has certain library requirement, updates repo provides new library version but not this package (--skip-missing? please), other repos (not exactly yum fault) providing same versions of software but with different prefix in name causes problems with overlaping locations of files etc >Multilib problems >Trolling again. Which problems? I remember having hard time with Virtualbox and qt 64 and i686 in 6.4 >For example I didn't find the way to compile qtlandcarte >Ah okay. So you're asking for help. Well, what was the problem? No, it was example. Problem was, with lower versions of libraries or none at all (gdal, Proj4), which leads to using "other repos" which ends with see above. >Apt I must say is ages ahead yum. >Trolling again. Say how it is ages ahead. Well literally apt 1998 yum ~2003, but also try to package perl modules with each for concurrent two different versions of perl, or do the same with python, and apt/deb saves you a lot of time. This above as I stated in my first post is mostly valid for desktop/dev usage, for server use I'm very happy with RHEL/CentOS.
