I use "smart" on SUSE and compared to "apt" / "dpkg" / "aptitude" / Synaptic it's slow as molasses.BlahBlah_X wrote:Meet SMART.
On Debian-like distros I'd stick to "apt", "dpkg" and Synaptic. Distros like SUSE and Fedora are definitely in need of a better package manager, and "smart" does a super job there. But Debian-based distros really don't have that problem I think.
