NAME
yum-debug-dump - write system RPM configuration to a debug-dump file
SYNOPSIS
yum-debug-dump
DESCRIPTION
yum-debug-dump is a program which creates a gzipped file containing a
lot of information useful to developers trying to debug a problem.
By default it will output a file to the current working directory named
yum_debug_dump-<hostname>-<time>.txt.gz. This file contains no private
information but does contain a complete list of all packages you have
installed, all packages available in any repository, important configu-
ration and system information. You can view this file using the
'zless' command.
You can use the coresponding program yum-debug-restore to act on this
file and restore a set of packages (much like dump/restore).
FILES
As yum-debug-dump uses YUM libraries for retrieving all the informa-
tion, it relies on YUM configuration for its default values like which
repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for details:
/etc/yum.conf
/etc/yum/repos.d/
/var/cache/yum/
