<div>What will happen if I run a "yum update" on a

can see if the rest of the scripts we run at

<div>I'm not really very happy with this throwing an error.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I get it. People need to upgrade. But breaking things
that are part of automated processes is a crappy way to get
the message across.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As I mentioned, upgrades will take some time still, and
now I have more work to deal with our unupgraded systems, so
now it will take even longer to upgrade.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks a bunch.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(Sorry for the sarcasm, but this is not a nice way to
deal with the situation).</div>
