This plugin adds the commands verify, verify-all and verify-rpm. There are also a couple of options. This command works like rpm -V, to verify your installation.
This plugin takes a set of name/versions for packages and excludes all other versions of those packages (including optionally following obsoletes). This allows you to protect packages from being updated by newer versions, for example.
Yum-presto is a plugin for yum that looks for deltarpms rather than rpms whenever they are available. This has the potential of saving a lot of bandwidth when downloading updates. A Deltarpm is the difference between two rpms. If you already have foo-1.0 installed and foo-1.1 is available, yum-presto will download the deltarpm for foo-1.0 => 1.1 rather than the full foo-1.1 rpm, and then build the full foo-1.1 package from your installed foo-1.0 and the downloaded deltarpm.
Runs yum update on system boot. This allows machines that have been turned off for an extended amount of time to become secure immediately, instead of waiting until the next early morning cron job.
yum-updatesd provides a daemon which checks for available updates and can notify you when they are available via email, syslog or dbus.
yum-utils is a collection of utilities and examples for the yum package manager. It includes utilities by different authors that make yum easier and more powerful to use. These tools include: debuginfo-install, find-repos-of-install, needs-restarting, package-cleanup, repoclosure, repodiff, repo-graph, repomanage, repoquery, repo-rss, reposync, repotrack, verifytree, yumdownloader, yum-builddep, yum-complete-transaction, yum-config-manager, yum-debug-dump, yum-debug-restore and yum-groups-manager.
