Ran Smart Package Manger once and never again. I had to reload

Sorry, but, that wasn't Smart's fault. It may have all sorts of
problems, but it always tells you exactly what it's going to do,
and gives you a chance to opt out.
In any event, I don't want this to turn into my proselytizing for
Smartpm. For me, it's working far better than earlier
implementations, and does some things better than Yumex, so I use
it. I use Yumex as well - right tool for the job is the
criteria...
