A question I've been dying to know the answer to for a while...
Can one switch between apt, yum and smart at any time?  

I'm still stuck on apt and was contemplating using yum for
the exact reason mentioned with dependency problems.  But
I'm certainly willing to give smart a try if it will solve
this issues.

Thanks
