When I run yum history I get a list of the last 20 yum operations. If I didn't clean my history, is there a way to get a full list?

Does yum only keep track of the last 20 operations? Is there a setting similar to bash that lets you keep more?

Try this:

cat /var/log/yum.log 

edit:

Also, after reading about yum history, it seems it keeps everything also in a sqlite db. This means that you have access to all the info you want from any time.

Try to run somehitng like:

yum history package-list \*yum\* 

You can list all transactions with:

yum history list all 

After that you can check, based on date or what ever you want happened in a specific transaction:

yum history list 107 

or about a specific package:

yum history package-list \*glib\*
