The virtue a cfg-mgmt system has is being able to throw down specific configs for a machine type or profile and/or dynamic reconfiguration. Now, we can definitely tie yum verify into the machine-specific config for verifying pkgs but I think foo and foo-config for every pkg is a lot more work than you think - and let's not even get into the discussion of things which are NOT QUITE config files but sort of are. -sv _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
