Hello, My environment: CentOS 5.2, rpmforge repo Is there some scriptable way to manipulate the yum configuration files? Examples of things I'd like to be able to do automatically (e.g. from inside an automatic deployment process): 1. Add "priority=" (with different values) to each repository. 2. Add "check_obsoletes=1" to priorities plugin 3. Add proxy settings So far I made-do with specific hacks of perl/sed (e.g. "sed -i~ '/^\[main\]/a proxy=http://10.10.1.65:3128' /etc/yum.conf") but as I'd like to generalise the approach I think it would be better to have something which really understands the config file. Perl is my favourite tool. I realise the Yum is written or heavily uses Python so I suppose I'll manage with python scripts which can be controlled from perl.
