yum can do local lists and local installs.
Yes, as I said above, yum can do local installs. And I'm aware of the
local listing capability.
quite frankly for 80% of the user case - if they're using the
command
line - they can just use yum.
True. But for those of us who aren't beginners, but who appreciate
simplity and elegance, it's be lovely to ask what package installed a
file with yum or pup. Perhaps yum or pup could also have an option to
restore that file to it's factory defaults (original contents), or other
useful things for us admin folks.
