I've never had any problems with it.  It always has worked as advertised.
Then again, I don't have a system that is modified much from the default
install, so in a more customized environment I can see that it may have
problems.  But then, that wasn't really what the tool was designed to do.
It's just meant to make things easier for the more "uninitiated" in the
world of Linux.  Or those too lazy to do all the necessary work to get these
packages installed (a group I fall into).
