That possible, but not so easy. Smart 0.42 can't do it, because when you
update channels, it will just hang when it try to check all deps.

I did it with yum, apt, smart compo. But it's still not easy, had to remove
many packets and some packets I had to force remove. When you do that, apt
can't be used anymore to install packets, because it will start to whine
that system is broken.

Btw, I have done some rh7.3 -> CentOS 4.4 upgrade too.
