yum-utils is missing confs for plugins

Description

I thought I already had yum-utils installed before I manually installed fastestmirror. I just discovered that it was not. However, upon installing it, I find that none of the confs are present in the rpm which need to end up in %UNIXROOT%/etc/yum/pluginconf.d.

I'm not sure of the best way to work this out, but I'm thinking that they should be installed and all set to enabled=0, unless we distribute them separately (I was going to package up a few, after checking dependencies).

I'm only marking this as major because if plugins is set to enabled (1) in yum.conf, running yum after installing this package gets very noisy. ;-)

Severity: highest

It should be noted that as of yum-utils 1.1.31-2, confs are not included in the package, however, the related confs are included in the individual packages for the various plugins, e.g., yum-plugin-versionlock-1.1.31-2, and these packages respect existing confs.

I might suggest repackaging yum-utils and just remove the plugins from the package, as the plugins are available separately. When attempting to install the plugins individually, after yum-utils has been installed, conflicts are reported:

[c:\]yum install --skip-broken yum-plugin-*
[...]
