Take my example. I have 137 yum history transactions on this server, the first one from march 2010
Now that I have upgraded to FC15 I have made several updates, additions and removals. (more than 20) I wanted to look up the yum transaction where I did the system upgrade (transaction 116) while tracking some bugs in my system, but the only way I could do it was by >yum history list 116 I found out it was that transaction number by going all the way from 100 forward, listing one by one until I found it out. instead of issuing 16 yum history commands. If I had a list 100-118 or something similar I could have found out the transaction number in just one command.
