Hallo, I need the information how many updates are available for a system. What is the best way to find it out in a one line bash script.
yum check-update, perhaps?
Note that "yum check-update" or "yum list updates" won't tell you how many packages would be installed with "yum update"... dependencies and such are not resolved for check-update/list updates.
Ok, you want it all, fine: echo "n" | yum update | egrep "Install|Upgrade"
