May I ask what is the use case for this? I'm not sure why would
you need to
deal with individual files instead of the entire packages.
Maybe to reinstall one default config file out of a package that contains
some? I found it useful.
Example:
I fiddle around with a new Nagios installation, then something stops
working. I'm pretty sure it is some modifications in /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg
but I cannot track it down.
As an example I could do:
mv /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg.mine
yum reinstall nagios --onlyfile /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg
Thanks,
