Hi,

Hi,
I would like to know the difference between YUM UPDATE and YUM UPGRADE. The man pages say upgrade is same as update with the obsolete option. And by default it says the obsolete option is turned on, which would make them equivalent. Does not say what obsolete does.

NAME
yum filter data plugin
SYNOPSIS
yum [options] [command] [package ...]
DESCRIPTION
This plugin extends yum with some options, currently just for "update" and "list update" type commands, to allow filters to be placed on
which packages should be used based on the data in those packages. Note that due to some of the data being unknown, and thus could possibly
match, all unknown data is treated as a match.
GENERAL OPTIONS
These are the options added to yum that are available in the "list updates", "info updates", "check-update" and "update" commands. They
are:
--filter-vendors
This option includes packages which have a vendor which matches one of the passed vendor wildcard strings, or is unknown. Note that
vendors can have spaces in their value, so "," is the only way to specify multiple vendors as one option argument.
--filter-rpm-groups
This option includes packages which have a group which matches one of the passed rpm group wildcard strings, or is unknown. Note
that rpm groups can have spaces in their value, so "," is the only way to specify multiple rpm groups as one option argument.
--filter-packagers
This option includes packages which have a packager which matches one of the passed packager wildcard strings, or is unknown. Note
that vendors can have spaces in their value, so "," is the only way to specify multiple packagers as one option argument.
--filter-licenses
This option includes packages which have a license which matches one of the passed license wildcard strings, or is unknown. Note
that licenses can have spaces in their value, so "," is the only way to specify multiple licenses as one option argument.
--filter-arches
This option includes packages which have a arch which matches one of the passed arch wildcard strings, or is unknown.
--filter-committers
This option includes packages which have a committer which matches one of the passed committer wildcard strings, or is unknown. Note
that committers can have spaces in their value, so "," is the only way to specify multiple committers as one option argument. Also,
committer values are so loosely formed that they could contain commas too, it is recommended to not do that but you can work around
it by using "?".
--filter-buildhosts
This option includes packages which have a buildhost which matches one of the passed buildhost wildcard strings, or is unknown.
--filter-urls
This option includes packages which have a url which matches one of the passed url wildcard strings, or is unknown.
--filter-package-sizes
This option includes packages which have a packagesize which is within one of the passed packagesize ranges, or is unknown.
--filter-archive-sizes
This option includes packages which have a archivesize which is within one of the passed archivesize ranges, or is unknown.
--filter-installed-sizes
This option includes packages which have a installedsize which is within one of the passed installedsize ranges, or is unknown.
--filter-groups
This option includes packages which are in a yum group which matches one of the passed yum group id strings, or is unknown. Note
that yum groups can have spaces in their value, so "," is the only way to specify multiple yum groups as one option argument.
EXAMPLES
To list all updates that are 1 MB or less use:
yum --filter-package-sizes=-1m check-update
To apply updates that Dan Walsh has committed use:
yum --filter-committers='Dan Walsh *' update
To list updates for a specific group use:
yum --filter-rpm-groups='App*/Sys*' list updates
To apply updates to a specific set of groups use:
yum --filter-rpm-groups='App*/System,Devel*/Lib*,System Environment/Base' update
To list updates for a set of yum groups use:
yum --filter-groups='PostgreSQL Database,Web Server' list updates
To apply updates to a specific set of yum groups use:
yum --filter-groups='KDE,Core,Printing Support' update

BUGS
Currently yum can't filter packages in all of the commands, so for instance "yum list 'yum*'" doesn't get the results filtered.
Apart from that there are no bugs, but should you find any, 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.red-
hat.com for Fedora/RHEL/Centos related bugs and http://yum.baseurl.org/report for all other bugs.
