The yum element provides for specific customizations for yum based distros. The included customization is a yum cache mounted outside of the chroot so that yum downloaded packages are reused on subsequent image builds. Change-Id: I6833c9fdbc83cb09debec6a789082e105c917800

Provide yum specific image building glue.
|
|
|
|
RHEL/Fedora/CentOS and other yum based distributions need specific yum
|
|
customizations.
|
|
|
|
Customizations include caching of downloaded yum packages outside of the build
|
|
chroot so that they can be reused by subsequent image builds. The cache
|
|
increases image building speed when building multiple images, especially on
|
|
slow connections. This is more effective than using an HTTP proxy as a yum
|
|
cache since the same rpm from different mirrors is often requested.
