We are using yum via cfengine to keep all our boxes up to date every night using a script like below: #yum wrapper so the cfengine gets its umask right umask 022 /usr/bin/yum -y -d 0 -e 0 update yum /usr/bin/yum -y -d 0 -e 0 update This is mostly quiet but it still mails warnings when it saves a config file as .rpmnew . Which is moderately annoying when 250 machines all mail the same message. Obviously I could dump both stdout and stderr to /dev/null but I don't want to miss real error messages. So I was wondering what other people do to get around this? This is yum 2.0.4 on Fedora 1.
