yumex is available from EPEL. smart-gui, at ATrpms, gives similar
information and I've used it a lot, recently in the 1.4.1 version which
I had to build myself. I'm now running 6.4 with kde-unstable and
haven't yet managed to rebuild smart-gui for that.
that drove the nail in real good. i installed this system from a live
cd and failed to set up the rest of the repos. i knew things where a
little on the thin side, but i had not realize why.
thank you very much.
Coming new(ish) to yumex after smart, I find its control of
repo-selection unreliable; but smart can get bogged down in dependency
resolution with eg the Fedora repos and prefers to sort out a few
packages at a time. Otherwise kill -9 :-(
