I was wondering if any of C3 or Capify offer the capability of doing
interactive distributed shell (if that ever makes sense), I am thinking of
the example of Yum's update on fedora, say without the default yes option.
Yum is trouble. I've been automating some aspects of creating RPMs and
installing them, and yum
-doesnt return meaningful error codes
-doesnt actually check machine state to see what things are like
The general discussion on the configuration-management list is that you
can automate rpm install using pure "rpm" command, and check for
installed artifacts yourself, but that yum is essentially not what you
want if you want to stay in control of your machine state.
