On Yellowdog Linux 3.0 -- more or less "out of the box":

=====================================
$ yum info yum
Gathering package information from servers
Getting headers from: Yellow Dog Linux 3.0 YDLbase
Getting headers from: Yellow Dog Linux 3.0 YDLupdates
Finding updated packages
Downloading needed headers
Looking in Available Packages:
Looking in Installed Packages:
Name   : yum
Arch   : noarch
Version: 1.0
Release: 1d
Size   : 198.10 kB
Group  : System Environment/Base
Summary: RPM installer/updater

So the version is 1.0-1d

Hope this helps,

Rick
