Unless there is a library (I don't remember if there is for yum or not), you have to know how to parse the tool's repository format (yum's is rather easy, 'cause it's standardized as part of LSB IIRC)... Unless, of course, you fork the installer process, which I guess you could do, though the problem is you will likely lose the really detailed error messages. -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
