Greetings,

Does SL6 support the yum-plugin-security [1] plugin? This would be very
useful in addressing security advisories.

The SL6 Deployment Guide mentions this plugin, but I'm not clear if SL6
supports this since the plugin requires a significant amount of work in the
yum repositories.

I installed this plugin on a brand new SL6.1 installation, but I'm not
getting any information out of it:

SL61 # yum list-sec cves
Loaded plugins: security
updateinfo list done
SL61 #

I've searched around for an answer to this, but I haven't found much
information.

Thank you!

-= Stefan
