"shell" is a yum command, invoked as shown below. I don't believe
there is any program called "yum-shell" (even though that is the man
page reference).
shell Is used to enter the 'yum shell', when a filename is
specified the contents of that file is executed in
yum shell mode. See yum-shell(8) for more info.
SYNOPSIS
yum shell [filename]
The contents of the file need to be standard yum-acceptable lines.
I.e., the lines of a package list would need to be edited to include
"install " and/or input continuation characters, etc.
