The only entry of interest would be:
# yum distro-sync
According to:
$ man yum
...
distribution-synchronization or distro-sync
Synchronizes the installed package set with the latest packages
available, this is done by either obsoleting, upgrading or down‐
grading as appropriate. This will "normally" do the same thing
as the upgrade command however if you have the package FOO
installed at version 4, and the latest available is only version
3, then this command will downgrade FOO to version 3.
This command does not perform operations on groups, local pack‐
ages or negative selections.
...
it may reshuffle some packages, but only for the good/integrity of
the installation.
