[1] I noticed that yum wants to update his local repository here as
well. I think it's better to get that behaviour out yum and only
update it's local repo if there is none available or a update command
is given or a install command is given.
Hope that explains it better.
Human: I want to see what version of a package I have installed without doing network access.
Yum command: yum list installed packagename
Human I want to see if there is an update of that package available
Yum command yum list updates packagename
I dont see a reason why yum needs to be interactive and prompt for a chain of queries..when you can do the queries yourself in whatever order you desire.
