NAME
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.

yum list-rpm-groups updates
