* Help! Is there a program like EMERGE(Gentoo) for mandrake?


i used Gentoo before.. that had a cool program called Emerge..
This could be used to search for application/software to download and automatically install for you. is there a similar product for Mandrake?

Mandrake uses RPM which is not as good as Gentoo's emerge.
However, you can take a look at Apt4RPM.
