Perhaps i am wrong, but i would call soemthing that makes use of another
somethings resources a front-end function.
So up2date is a front end to apt?
A front end makes use of a
service, not neccissarily a front-end to the application.
You have a weird definition of "front-end". You would say Mozilla is a
httpd "front-end"? Or Samba is a Win2000 "front-end"?
Up2date can use apt or yum repositories, but uses neither the apt or yum
program.
