Why don't you use Python's ConfigParser? That's what yum itself actually uses (AFAIK). http://docs.python.org/library/configparser.html
With that module, you can read a file, modify the objects, and then write it to a new file.
That's exactly (well, 99%) what I was hoping to find. I guessed that there are tools already around used by Yum but wouldn't know where to start looking. I looked for a more yum-specific code. I'll try to wrap the Python thing with something I can call from Perl.
