update-rpms doesn't care what distro it's running on. DepMan/UpdateRpms.pm and PackMane/RPM.pm both do, but they could do a better test that doesn't care about the distro per-se. The former should only look for the cache files, the latter should only look for the rpm command (or db, or something else). -- David N.
