Unless they changed it recently, you are wrong.  the plugin is loaded
while yum runs if the plugin.d/config file says so, but it will only
operate if the --skip-broken is given on the command line which is good
'cause actually doing all the extra checking the plugin needs to do
slows down the yum process quite a bit!
