yum verify plugin
SYNOPSIS
yum [options] verify [package ...]
DESCRIPTION
This plugin extends yum with some commands that give verification information on the installed system, much like rpm -V. You can change how
the verification is done and which files it applies to.
added yum commands are:
* verify
* verify-rpm
* verify-all
all of which take the same arguments as the list yum command, obviously you can only verify packages that are installed on the system.
verify Is the generic verification command, and is intended to give the most useful output. It removes all false matches due to multilib
and ignores changes to configuration files by default.
verify-rpm
Is meant to be 100% compatible with rpm -V output, and any differences should be considered as bugs.
verify-all
Is used to list all the differences, including some that rpm itself will ignore.
GENERAL OPTIONS
These are the options added to yum that are available in the verify commands. They are:
--verify-filenames
This option is used to limit the filenames that the packages will perform verification.
--verify-configuration-files
This option is only useful in the generic verify command, and will enable/disable verification of files that are tagged as configu-
ration files.
EXAMPLES
To do the same as rpm -Va, use:
yum verify-rpm
To verify the packages starting with the name yum, use:
yum verify 'yum*'
To verify the binaries that are in a bin directory, use:
yum verify --verify-filenames='*bin/*'
To verify all include files, Eg. for multilib problems, use:
yum verify-all --verify-filenames='/usr/include/*'

BUGS
Currently yum-verify does not do verify-script checking or dependency checking,
only file checking.
Should you find any other bugs, you should first
consult the FAQ section on http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq and if unsuccessful
in finding a resolution contact the mailing list: yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org.
To file a bug use http://bugzilla.redhat.com for Fedora/RHEL/Centos
related bugs and http://yum.baseurl.org/report for all other bugs.

yum list data plugin
SYNOPSIS
yum [options] [command] [package ...]
DESCRIPTION
This plugin extends yum for some commands that give aggregate package data based on lists of packages
added yum commands are:
* list-vendors
* info-vendors
* list-rpm-groups
* info-rpm-groups
* list-packagers
* info-packagers
* list-licenses
* info-licenses
* list-arches
* info-arches
* list-committers
* info-committers
* list-buildhosts
* info-buildhosts
* list-baseurls
* info-baseurls
* list-package-sizes
* info-package-sizes
* list-archive-sizes
* info-archive-sizes
* list-installed-sizes
* info-installed-sizes
* list-groups
* info-groups
all of which take the same arguments as the list and info yum commands. The difference between the list and info varieties is that the info
versions lists all the packages under each aggregation.
list-vendors, info-vendors
Is used to list the aggregate of the vendor attribute on the packages, examples are "Fedora Project" and "Red Hat, Inc.".
list-rpm-groups, info-rpm-groups
Is used to list the aggregate of the group attribute on the packages, examples are "Applications/System", "Development/Tools" and
"System Environment/Base"
list-packagers, info-packagers
Is used to list the aggregate of the packager attribute on the packages, examples are "Fedora Project" and "Red Hat, Inc.".
list-licenses, info-licenses
Is used to list the aggregate of the license attribute on the packages, examples are "GPL" and "MIT"
list-arches, info-arches
Is used to list the aggregate of the arch attribute on the packages, examples are "i386" and "x86_64"
list-committers, info-committers
Is used to list the aggregate of the committer attribute on the packages, this is taken from the most recent changelog entry of the
package.
list-buildhosts, info-buildhosts
Is used to list the aggregate of the buildhost attribute on the packages, examples are "mybuilder.example.com" and "xen-
builder1.fedora.redhat.com"
list-baseurls, info-baseurls
Is used to list the aggregate of the url attribute on the packages after discarding the path of the URL, examples are
"http://yum.baseurl.org/" and "http://www.and.org/"
list-package-sizes, info-package-sizes
Is used to list the aggregate of specified ranges the packagesize attribute on the packages, examples are "[ 1B - 10KB ]" and "[
750KB - 1MB ]".
list-archive-sizes, info-archive-sizes
Is used to list the aggregate of specified ranges the archivesize attribute on the packages, examples are "[ 1B - 10KB ]" and "[
750KB - 1MB ]".
list-installed-sizes, info-installed-sizes
Is used to list the aggregate of specified ranges the installedsize attribute on the packages, examples are "[ 1B - 10KB ]" and
"[ 750KB - 1MB ]".
list-groups, info-groups
Is used to list the aggregate of the yum groups that the packages are in, examples are in "yum grouplist". Note that in yum groups a
package can be in more than one group at a time.
It is worth noting that some of the above data can be "unknown", to yum, at which point a separate aggregation called "-- Unknown --" is
listed.
EXAMPLES
To list all the groups that have an update, along with the number of packages in each group, use:
yum list-rpm-groups updates
To list all the committers to packages that have yum in their name, use:
yum list-committers 'yum*'
To list ranges of the sizes of packages installed or available, use:
yum list-package-sizes
To list yum groups that have an update, use:
yum list-groups
