I wish I had known about this some time ago. It's not Yum doing this (although yeah, Yum is pretty cool)... it's the RedHat/Fedora packagers who have made life so easy for us RH admins (as long as you're doing What's Expected) that we get spoiled and whine and complain when we're forced to administer some other operating system (I won't name names but it starts with 'S' and ends with 'olaris' :-) that don't take such good care of their admins. I strongly suggest you pick up a copy of Learning Red Hat Enterprise and Fedora (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/learnredhatentlnx/) -- it's a very handy book for people new to The Red Hat Way.
