Remember Automatix? Yes the nifty little application that made installing additional softwares on the Ubuntu system a breeze. Here comes the same for Fedora 9, FedoMATIX (v0.1Beta). It currently works on the command line only, but supports more than 60 additional softwares/apps already. The next version, which is due release in 2 months, will feature a GUI and many more softwares and hacks.

i used automatix when i first looked at ubuntu. a modified apt that added a "automatix" category would have been better.
adding another layer of package management does not make things easier and instead creates another level of confusion for users.
synaptic and sources.list is all you need.
the terminal is the ace up your sleeve.
