You can always apply the update manually using rpm -Fvh.  Just be *very*
careful if you're doing the glibc updates since the architecture *must*
match what you have currently installed.

If you install manually, just schedule an up2date -p sometime later on
to update your profile.  I usually put this in to cron to do regularly
in case I've removed or added a package outside of up2date.
