It's a good start but there are some essential differences/concepts that
are hard to express in table format.

One of which is the difference between
rpm -q vim and
rpm-qp vim-7.0-2-1.i686.rpm*

Plus a lot of yum stuff that isn't there (yet!)

So, who do I have to sleep with** to get access to update that page?
I created a new user (Lanky), but appreciate that as anyone can do this,
I'd need to be 'unblocked', as it were.

:)

Stuart

* there appears to be a mixed use of rpm -q and rpm -qp in the table.

** the answer may well affect whether I decide to bother :)
