Perfect :-) Thanks

No, it doesn't, they support zypper, but I don't like it :-p

Normal, not advanced user, would just panic in case smart wouldn't work and
they will probably switch to another package manager, more over you need to
know which packages to download, from where and which versions... Not so
easy.

It would be great to have a Smart installer, that would download the minimum
bare requirements if not found in the system... Honestly I don't think this
is the perfect solution.

The problem would always happen in the case of a python upgrade. It's not
possible to workaround this problem I think, at least not using Python.

Well, it's also a matter of broken dependencies in distro related
repositories.

I mean, the installation order should be:

1. Upgrade RPM system
2. Install new Python packages
3. Upgrade Smart
4. Remove old not needed packages (i.e Old Python)

But this I think it's a distro issue.
