In general we don't recommend screen scrapping yum output, writing a yum script is often significantly easier (and supported). For what I _think_ you are trying to do above, you probably just want "yum list updates" or "yum check-update" output. -- James Antill -- james@xxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
