8.5. Yum Plug-ins
Yum provides plug-ins that extend and enhance its operations. Certain plug-ins are installed by default. Yum always informs you which plug-ins, if any, are loaded and active whenever you call any
yum
command. For example:
~]# yum info yum
Loaded plugins: product-id, refresh-packagekit, subscription-manager
[output truncated]
Note that the plug-in names which follow
Loaded plugins
are the names you can provide to the --disableplugins=plugin_name
option.
8.5.1. Enabling, Configuring, and Disabling Yum Plug-ins
To enable Yum plug-ins, ensure that a line beginning with
plugins=
is present in the [main]
section of /etc/yum.conf
, and that its value is 1
:
plugins=1
You can disable all plug-ins by changing this line to
plugins=0
.
Important
Disabling all plug-ins is not advised because certain plug-ins provide important
Yum
services. In particular, rhnplugin provides support for RHN Classic
, and product-id and subscription-manager plug-ins provide support for the certificate-based Content Delivery Network
(CDN). Disabling plug-ins globally is provided as a convenience option, and is generally only recommended when diagnosing a potential problem with Yum
.
Every installed plug-in has its own configuration file in the
/etc/yum/pluginconf.d/
directory. You can set plug-in specific options in these files. For example, here is the refresh-packagekit plug-in's refresh-packagekit.conf
configuration file:
[main] enabled=1
Plug-in configuration files always contain a
[main]
section (similar to Yum's /etc/yum.conf
file) in which there is (or you can place if it is missing) an enabled=
option that controls whether the plug-in is enabled when you run yum
commands.
If you disable all plug-ins by setting
enabled=0
in /etc/yum.conf
, then all plug-ins are disabled regardless of whether they are enabled in their individual configuration files.
If you merely want to disable all Yum plug-ins for a single
yum
command, use the --noplugins
option.
If you want to disable one or more Yum plug-ins for a single
yum
command, add the --disableplugin=plugin_name
option to the command. For example, to disable the presto plug-in while updating a system, type:
~]# yum update --disableplugin=presto
The plug-in names you provide to the
--disableplugin=
option are the same names listed after the Loaded plugins
line in the output of any yum
command. You can disable multiple plug-ins by separating their names with commas. In addition, you can match multiple plug-in names or shorten long ones by using glob expressions:
~]# yum update --disableplugin=presto,refresh-pack*
