Tips and Tricks

"Yum halts if there is any dependency problem within the repository 
to be safe and doesnt perform partial updates. Use this script if 
you want that. Kindly ensure that you report any dependency issues 
to the appropriate repository bug tracker or post to the relevant 
project list if it requires more discussions."

 #!/bin/sh
 for i in `yum list updates |cut -f 1 -d " " |grep -A 500 -e 
Updated |\
    (all one line, better to copy an paste from the webpage)
 grep -v -e Updated` ; do
       echo "Updating $i"
       yum -y update $i
 done 
           ..........................

    Long ago I copied that script into a file an made it executable 
in my /home/<user>/bin  dir.  I named it yumnd.  EG, as 
root,  'yumnd' on the CL.    BUT don't hold your breath... it will 
install very few updates from current rawhide, leavin out many that 
have missin deps.  It's also much slower than 'yum update'. So 
you'll still need to have "Patience"
