VDQ (Very Dumb Question): so the expected behavior of the user in that case is to try yum update pkg2 pkg3 and then if it exits again, yum update pkg3 and so on, for however many pkg# there are? If so, is there a way to automate it? Should there be? I can't speak for yum, but I've certainly hit situations with rpm -Uvh where I had to use whatever.*.rpm -- either because I had several installed and needed several more in optimal sequence, or just because I needed a whole wad of them. And it worked.
