Because of interdependencies.  If one thing relies on another thing, you
have to have the appropriate versions of each, you cannot change one
without changing the other, as well.  And, it's not just one thing
depends on another, there's a whole chain of things that are dependent
on each other.

If all goes well, yum can manage doing that for you, all of it.

Sometimes it's easier to just wait a bit longer, until the real problem
gets fixed with an even newer update.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
