*yum*: Support via yum. Required binaries: python, rpm, yum. Default for
operatingsystem == fedoracentosredhat. Supported features: installable,
uninstallable, upgradeable, versionable.

I have many workarounds for solving many problems. But I'm looking for
solving all my problems using native types...
