Long story: The problem is that options can only be parsed after initial configuration has been setup, but some options have to be parsed before initial configuration (Eg. -c --noplugins --installroot etc. ... and -q). The way we work around this is to have a custom option parser for just those special options. However that special option parser doesn't understand that "-yq" means "-y -q" (or -yc blah.conf etc.). -- James Antill -- james@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/releases http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/whatsnew/3.2.29 http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/YumMultipleMachineCaching _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
