No major problems with Fedora's current system
I haven't experienced any problems with either yum, or the gui Software Update and Add/Remove Packages for years (apparently there is a bug in the just-released FC16 installer, requiring a double-reinstall of bash -- if you aren't already aware of it, and are totally inept with google, it could cause some head scratching).
I don't like how packages are listed in Add/Remove Software though, by obscurely generic descriptive titles, rather than just by the actual package name (e.g., "A BitTorrent Client", rather than "Azeurus"). It could also do a better job of showing real-time progress info for download and installation (actually yum in the cli does a better job of it).
I feel it's 95% there, you could just rename it "Software Centre" / "App Store" / whatever, if that seems a tad more au courant.
