The command line is my choice as well.  I have a tiny shell script that gets
run after each update that creates text files of whats installed and
available:

$ cat upd.sh
yum list installed 2>&1>yum.installed
yum list available 2>&1>yum.available

then its just a matter of
grep some_program_or_other yum.*

to check to see what version of something is installed, whether its
installed, or if its available via yum
