CentOS - Jul 2011 - No Package Manager? (Where's YumEx)

Hi List,

This morning while setting up C6 on my laptop this morning I attempted 
to download and install Yumex, but the repos returned no results for 
this package. Has this been discontinued and if so, what package manager 
should I be looking for?

thanks,

Mark

YumEx is in the EPEL repository

surely there is a gui package manager in the default rhel/centos 6 kit 
?   (I hardly ever use gui so I wouldn't know)

PackageKit.

In GNOME, it's System->Administration->Add/Remove Software

I'd go for Smart Package Manager if it's available on Centos 
6?

yum info smart*
