Fwd: [ controltier-Feature Requests-2869137 ] Manually merge rpm constraints and attributes into YumRpm

[Anthony Shortland]

This is probably my last contribution to 3.4.9.

This one makes using the YumRpm type more useful. By including the its super-type's allowed child constraints (what a shame we haven't got round to inheriting them yet!) we've enabled the use of all the other rpm module command in the context of a YumRpm package object. In other words you can use the YumRpm type in conjunction with the RpmBuilder to build (create) and RPM for subsequent installation from a Yum repository.

Does anyone have a good cheat sheet on how to add packages to Yum? Adding commands to do this is the obvious next enhancement to the module.

Anthony.

Merged in the rpm super-type's child constraints. Eliminated the
YumUseSudo and YumSetting types in favor of using RpmUseSudo.
