I changed the "installonly_limit" to "1" from the default value "3" in
/etc/yum.conf, and yum blows up.
# yum search boinc
Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
Options Error: Error parsing '1': out of range integer value
PackageKit gave me a better traceback:

I changed the value to 0, 2, 3 etc, all of them resulting in a working
yum environment. Is it a known issue, or worth filing a bug?
Yum version is yum-3.2.25-1.fc12.noarch
yum doesn't like installonly_limit=1?
