Background

For SME10 yum has been enhanced to look for an update event for an rpm that is being installed with the name <rpmname>-update. This is then run after the install, giving the developer the opportunity to configure the system and avoid the "post-upgrade;reboot" that has been needed in the past.

yum will suppress the "configure required" message if this event is found.
