You'd presume so. But updates can remove some obsoleted packages. And what if you were one of the rare cases where other things were dependent on what got removed, and things snowballed? The opposite is probably more likely, though. That an install might drag in a huge number of extra packages, and that might not be convenient for you. I'd only do yum -y something if I were running duplicate machines, and I expected the duplicates to behave the same as the first one I did a yum something on. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.9.8-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Jun 27 19:19:57 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
