I would like to know about new software (rpms) with a general
description as they become available in the major repos.
Currently, I run "yum --enablerepo=* list recent" in cron.daily, but it
does not provide a description.
The following will cycle through the recently added packages, and then
output the description for each package. You could then have this
mailed to you, or what ever you do with your cron job.
yum -q list recent | cut -f 1 -d ' ' | grep -v "Recently" \
| xargs -L 1 yum -q info
