I don't want RPM specifics... I'd prefer something as package independent as
possible.  Plus I don't want any dependencies on any programs besides those
the system will have for sure (Like RedHat/Mandrake/Caldera/SuSE hacing RPM,
or Debian having apt, etc.).  The update program isn't only for gnome.
 Although I may make a specialized version with a GTK/GNOME GUI later on
specifically for upgrading GNOME, a bit like the Helix CODE Updater, but
much more stable and usable for people who don't like Helix GNOME.
