When running "yumex --skip-broken --nogpgcheck" I see a number of packages in the list of updates that are excluded as having dependency issues if I run "yum --skip-broken --nogpgcheck". Does the skip-broken with yumex get considered*only* if I try to apply the updates? Until I'm sure about that I'm a little worried about doing an apply with yumex (as many of the packages that get excluded under yum but not yumex are X packages and I don't want to have a non-working X environment suddenly).
I've never tried running yumex that way from a CLI. However, I've selected those options in yumex a few times to get around issues. From what I've seen, yumex will show you all of the updates and even allow you to select them, even with those options because it's not until it tries to resolve the dependencies that the problems reveal themselves. It's different with yum because yum doesn't give you the list of updates until after checking dependencies.
