Fedora Core Fedora Test 3, is, most certainly, as the name says, a test. In my experience there are a few problems and a few bugs that would keep me from recommending it as an everyday desktop replacement, but nonetheless, Fedora is an Operating System (distro) worth watching out.

Fedora and apt

apt seems to work well in test 3 as long as the packages are "signed". Unfortunately, it won't work if the packages aren't signed. I did find however, that it still downloads the packages and all dependent packages, it just doesn't install them. This can be overcome by launching the packages from konqueror. I hope this is changed before version 1 is released. This has the potential to be a killer distribution!
