Smart 1.4.1 with Fedora 18

[Stephen Morris]

Hi,
     I have now upgraded to Fedora 18 and I am having a couple of issues 
with Smart 1.4.1.

     - In a previous email relative to Fedora 17 Anders mentioned that 
he didn't think base and mirror list urls could be mixed, but if both 
were specified the base url would be ignored and the mirror list used 
instead, if this is the case why does smart insist that a base url be 
supplied if a mirror list is specified?

     - Relative to the above, if the mirror list is specified as the 
base url smart reads the raw html/xml supplied by the mirror list rather 
than the url's the mirror list is providing and then complains its not 
valid.

     - Also, when I have configured smart to use the same mirror lists 
and url's as Yum is using, why does smart tell me there is nothing to 
upgrade when Yum tells me there is 83 packages to upgrade, which 
packagekit also told me before I even configured smart?

     - Is it possible to get the smart base url/mirror list 
functionality changed? For 2 of the repositories configured I would like 
smart to use the base url instead of the mirror list unless the base url 
is out of date compared the the mirror list repositories or the base url 
is problematic, in which case I want smart to use the mirror list instead?

regards,
Steve
