Description Joachim Backes 2012-01-12 05:28:16 UTC

Description of problem:

I made a yum call with a typo:

yum upodate kernel --enablerepo=updates-testing (I meant ... update ...)

It seems yum does a lot of not useful things before it sees the syntax error:

yum upodate kernel --enablerepo=updates-testing
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
