If you set obsoletes=1 flag in /etc/yum.conf you will always get that
(upgrade versus update) behavior. I have heard the claim that that flag is set
by default with Fedora installs, but I am not sure if that is true or when it
might have become true.
You probably always want that behavior because even updates within a major
version can obsolete things.
