NAME
yum - Yellowdog Updater Modified shell
SYNOPSIS
yum shell [filename]
DESCRIPTION
yum includes an interactive shell for conducting multiple commands or sets of com-
mands during a single execution of yum. These commands can be issued manually or
passed to yum from a file. The commands are much the same as the normal yum command
line options. See here yum(8) for that information. There are a few additional com-
mands documented below.
config [argument] [value]
args: debuglevel, errorlevel, obsoletes, gpgcheck, assumeyes, exclude
If no value is given it prints the current value.
If value is given it sets that value.
repo [argument] [option]
list: lists repositories and their status
enable: enable repositories. option = repository id
disable: disable repositories. option = repository id
transaction
[argument]
list: lists the contents of the transaction
reset: reset (zero-out) the transaction
solve: run the dependency solver on the transaction
run: run the transaction
Examples
The following are examples of using the yum shell.
list available packagename*
groupinfo ’Some Group’
install foo
remove bar
update baz
run
That will list available packages matching the glob ’packagename*’. It will
return information on the group ’Some Group’ It will then queue the follow-
ing commands into the transaction: install foo, remove bar, update baz.
Then the ’run’ command will resolve dependencies for the transaction com-
mands and run the transaction.
