yum update - Software Updater

[Dennis Castanos]

I just did a "yum -y update".  Rebooted and went to Sysytem Tools, Software
Updater, and it also had files to uddate.  I'm new at linux and like to know
what's up between the two different ways to update Fedora 5.

Why the paranoia? FC is not a static world. Additional packages were
uploaded to the mirrors between your last update and reboot. Happens
all the time.

It's also possible that the first update chose a mirror that wasn't
fully synced with the latest, and the second update got a mirror with
the latest.
