[ATrpms-users] Dependency errors/conflicts for yum?

Ah well, it looks like doing an "apt-get remove yum" has a nasty 
side-effect of removing apt from the system. After a subsequent reboot, 
apt-get is no longer anywhere to be found. This matches the behavior 
recently reported on the mythtv-users list.

Back to the drawing board. :) I clearly need to do some more research 
into the whole RPM mechanism before I wade back into this.

Thanks,

Rob
