I am required to modify various package files after a yum install or yum update because of site requirements.
An example is the /etc/skel/.bashrc file. A mod to set a specific umask, permissions, prompt and color are done. A yum update or yum reinstall replaces the file and the site specific mods which then must be redone. Creating a yum checkpoint of the package would permit rolling the bash package to a specific checkpoint and could return the files to the mod'ed condition. Currently yum does not have the function to do checkpointing which could retain/restore previous mods which are site specific. Yum verify is also affected. Is there a method to do checkpointing in yum or do I need to write a yum plugin to create the function.
