 All the main FedoraRepositories support [Yum]; RedHat staff and other distributors who want to easily make packages available tend to use it instead of [APT]. 
  
 Some users find that it does not work as well as advertised; see f.ex. [Fedora and the repository politics | http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/7263]. Of course, [YMMV].

+There is now a nice front end for [Yum] if you use FedoraCore 4 or higher called yumex. To install just type  
+<pre>yum install yumex  
+</pre>  
+  
+Also a note if upgrading from FedoraCore 3 to 4 and your yum breaks go back to a default yum.conf file as most repositories do not yet work for FedoraCore 4.
