so, I liked this idea so much I did it.

errorlevel = # in the yum.conf file or
-e # on the command line.

number goes from 0-10 (though anything above 2 is downright silly)

it should do what you expect now, troy.

I'll make a tarball of it shortly.
the next thing on my todo list is comps-file parsing for package groups.

I have a second need for that tool do to comps-checking in the red hat
installation tree I maintain.

oh if any of y'all maintain a red hat-like install tree and are
interested there are some nifty tree maintenance tools at:

www.dulug.duke.edu/treetools/

they are fairly straightforward and internally documented.
