Is this true, that Fedora can be kept "up to date" with "up2date", for
free? I would be really surprised, since RedHat has clamped down on
up2date's free use over the last few months (I know from personal
experience). Can anyone vouch for this? I wasn't aware of "apt for
rpm" either. Does it work well, with Fedora?
Maybe it's too early yet for people to know these answers, but I would
really like to know.
