[mythtv-users] yum Dependancy

[Frostykev]

So, it looks like only yum was uninstalled:

# apt-get remove yum
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  yum
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 removed and 164 not
upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives.
After unpacking 654kB disk space will be freed.

Done.

however, during the update:
# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
it removes:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  atrpms-kickstart

So here is where I am:
Yum uninstalled, since it errors out earlier.
apt-get no longer works.

Should I just use fedora's update tool?  Or try to
keep folllowing the guide?  Or should I wait a little
while to see if the rpms get updated so they don't
have this dependancy problem?

Or, did I miss something in the FC3 install?
