I doubt that. Lots of us are long accustomed to personal
preferences, however irrational, making large differences.

Fwiw, I find synaptic more user-friendly than PackageKit,
especially for tweaking cruft -- cruft to me, I mean -- out of,
and preferred apps into, a particular install (especially on the
EeePC!); and I do use it, for instance if I want Konqueror a/o
K3B with as little other KDE as possible.
Nevertheless for the most part I stick to PackageKit and
its updater for routine, and yum for single apps, just because
Fedora seems to me to fit them better.
But I still read posts from yourself, Mackenzie, and
strong advocates of other distros that I prefer against or
haven't tried, very carefully. I glean a lot from from them, and
I thank you all.
