Seth,
A couple of tiny additions would make things work smoother on some
scripts I'm writing.
yum info packagename
does not report {arch} or {group}. Can you possibly add these to the info
page (at least arch).
I've found its awfully convenient in scripts to just run :
yum info updates
instead of "yum list updates" and then get the info for each one. but
in list I get arch and in info I don't. The group info (like
Applications/Financial) would be useful for sorting and the like.
The other request is equally stupid, but I can't seem to get info out
of yum for the extras packages.
If there is a package that comes up in :
yum list extras
then yum info packagename does not give info on it.
By the way, thanks for adding the links stuff, I'll try testing it out
this week, I like symbolic links better than hard links, hard links make
me nervous.
