(if you can stand one more post on the topic, i'm still working on
this for the entertainment value, and also to school myself in the
intricacies of debugging upgrades of this complexity. and now, to the
specific example.)
just to see how much upgrading this would involve, i tried the
following:
# yum upgrade udev
fully expecting to see *piles* of packages that would have to come
along for the ride, and i was not disappointed:
...

further up the output, we have this verification:

ok, all the dependencies were resolved so just let it go and see what
happens:

um ... what? why should the new udev conflict with the *existing*
bluez given that bluez should be upgraded as well?
# yum list bluez\*

as i read the above (and correct me if i'm doing this incorrectly),
i certainly see a newer (rawhide) version of bluez that i would have
thought would be part of the upgrade, but apparently it isn't.
if i go back through the lengthy list of packages to be
installed/upgraded, nothing of the form "bluez*" is listed. why not?
it's listed as available, it's clearly(?) in rawhide, but it's somehow
not being picked up in this sizable upgrade.
how *would* one interpret the above diagnostic?
