I would like the -q flag to not output warnings. Either that, or send them to stdout rather than stderr. The warnings I'm referring to are "warning: package kernel-smp = 2.4.18-3 was already added, replacing with kernel-smp <= 2.4.18-3" warnings for different architectures. I'm using yum 1.97-1 on a RHL 9 system. I'd rather not run 2>&1 on the cronjob that runs yum-arch, but will if I continue to get e-mail every night when it runs. If these are not warnings that can be safely ignored, would someone please tell me what they are about. Joseph
