I defined:
alias yu="sudo yum --skip-broken update"
the only differences being that I put the flag first, then the argument, and I used
quotation marks, not apostrophes. I know there is a difference in bash between '
and ", but mine really DOES work (on both of my computers, for both me and root on
each).
Maybe try?
