SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

12       yum  includes  an interactive shell for conducting multiple commands or
13       sets of commands during a single execution of yum. These  commands  can
14       be  issued manually or passed to yum from a file. The commands are much
15       the same as the normal yum command line options. See  here  yum(8)  for
16       that information. There are a few additional commands documented below.

22              exclude
23                   If no value is given it prints the current value.
24                   If value is given it sets that value.
25
26       repo
27                 [argument] [option]
28                   list: lists repositories and their status
29                   enable: enable repositories. option = repository id
30                   disable: disable repositories. option = repository id
31
32       transaction
33                 [argument]
34                   list: lists the contents of the transaction
35                   reset: reset (zero-out) the transaction
36                   solve: run the dependency solver on the transaction
37                   run: run the transaction
38
39       exit
40                   Causes the shell to exit, setting the exit status as speci‐
41              fied by the
42                   shell_exit_status option in yum.conf(5).
43                   This  command  is  also triggered when EOF is read (usually
44              the C-d keystroke
45                   or end of script).

Examples

49       The following are examples of using the yum shell.
50
51               list available packagename*
52               groupinfo 'Some Group'
53               install foo
54               remove bar
55               update baz
56               run
57
58              That will list available packages matching  the  glob  'package‐
59              name*'.  It will return information on the group 'Some Group' It
60              will then queue the following commands  into   the  transaction:
61              install foo, remove bar, update baz. Then the 'run' command will
62              resolve dependencies for the transaction commands  and  run  the
63              transaction.
