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
       exit
                   Causes the shell to exit, setting the exit status as speci-
              fied by the
                   shell_exit_status option in yum.conf(5).
                   This  command  is  also triggered when EOF is read (usually
              the C-d keystroke
                   or end of script).

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  transaction:
              install foo, remove bar, update baz. Then the 'run' command will
              resolve dependencies for the transaction commands  and  run  the
              transaction.
