NAME
       yum - Yellowdog Updater Modified shell

SYNOPSIS
       yum shell [filename]

DESCRIPTION
       yum  includes an interactive shell for conducting multiple commands or
       sets of commands 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 commands 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 ’package-
	      name*’.  It will return information on the group	’Some  Group’
	      It  will	then  queue the following commands into	 the transac-
	      tion: install foo, remove bar, update baz. Then the ’run’	 com-
	      mand will resolve dependencies for the transaction commands and
	      run the transaction.
