For dist upgrades it might even be

glibc, yum, Python, ...) missing or in an endless loop.
    

there are several thousand ways that I hate "removing already installed
pkgs" as an automatic solution to a depsolving problem. That kind of
thinking for me does not fill me with confidence as I've watched that
behavior screw up far too often.
