SYNOPSIS
yum shell [filename]
DESCRIPTION
yum includes an interactive shell for conducting multiple commands or sets of commands during a single execution of yum. These commands can be issued manually or passed to yum from a file. The commands are much the same as the normal yum command line options. See here yum(8) for that information. There are a few additional commands documented below.

Examples
The following are examples of using the yum shell.
list available
packagename*
groupinfo ’Some Group’
install foo
remove bar
update baz
run
That will list available packages matching the glob ’packagename*’. It will return information on the group ’Some Group’ It will then queue the following commands into the transaction: install foo, remove bar, update baz. Then the ’run’ command will resolve dependencies for the transaction commands and run the transaction.
