Thanks for the reply David,
Just getting to some of the now.

the grep ConsoleKit was a demo snipped from
"yum list installed", but I forgot to clarify that
with a tag. So I hope, I didn't confuse too many
with my mistake.

The total goal.
Is to come up with a simple set(string?) of "commands"
that would allow someone to use a central nfs yum server
to download all needed updates. Without having to worry about
most of what's here:
http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/YumMultipleMachineCaching

I'm coming from this "Freemedia Hat" on.
Whereby there may be a small office/big family maybe <=10pc
where bandwidth is a challenge.
With most other named options (see link) overkill.
But, also allowing for the yum-server being the only
box writing to the cache. Which should negate the 
sqlite/nfs problem.
