What a useful tip! This is really, really useful - except that it
ignores kernel-smp packages. Is this deliberate?
Probably not -- the program is quite new.
Perhaps the script should be modified to see which of kernel or
kernel-smp is in use (using uname -a or something similar), and modify
the comparison in line 141 of the package-cleanup script accordingly.
Or look at /etc/sysconfig/kernel, yeah. Or just always check. In any case,
patches are accepted on the yum-devel list. :)
It would be good to get a component in bugzilla for the yum scripts, so
far, no luck.
I've added this as bug 163606.
