I asked this before when I configured another CentOS box, but I forget the answer. In my apt sources folder, I don't have a repo that is the equivalent of the yum Centos.Base.repo. Where do I find such a file?
The responses given last time are still valid. Be aware though that yum has now some very nifty features such as yumex/plugins. On my testbed machine i have about 280 packages protected from 3rd party repos that want to overwrite the packages in base.
If i was using apt4rpm it would swallow all those packages, so you might wanna check out those plugins.
FWIW apt4rpm has long been without development upsteam since the company that developed it was bought by Mandriva and dooes not intend to develop it.
