[Yum] Switch n ?

Hello Seth,

I have repository and yum and my stupid little yum-selectmirror now 
running flawlessly.
This is indeed very stable at this time. Good work.

Now - I could use expect for this, but you already have the -y switch 
so why not a -n (for no) switch?

What I need it for? Well - I would like to make a Webmin interface for 
yum, and this is all I need.
With a -n switch I can have yum give me a list of rpms it wants to 
install, and then simply re-run yum with -y should the user agree after 
being presented with the list.

Or do you have a better way?

Karsten
