Agreed!  And that is what I am looking for.

Also, I did finally get YUP to pass the sanity checks (dependencies), but
it still isn't quite what I am looking for, as it provides no way of
selecting which packages I want to install (manually), or just downloading
them rather than installing them.  I don't like to download a massive
number of RPMS and have them all automatically installed :)
