Should kernel-debug be installed as a dependency if it was not previously installed? A "yum update" now wants to install kernel-debug.

On my system, yum update behaves as expected. I see no reference of kernel-debug:

I do not think it should, no.
Do you maybe have a version of kernel-debug installed?

No earlier kernel-debug version was installed. None of the other systems I updated required kernel-debug.
Did "yum clean all ; yum remove kernel-debug", which yum did without complaints or dependency issues, then ran "yum update" again and no updates were found. Sounds like another yum oddity as Filipe suggested.

Did you try to run "yum clean all" and then try "yum update" again? Yum has recently started to act weird, apparently a bug with sqlite that occasionally corrupts the dependency database and starts suggesting bogus dependencies. That might be the issue you are experiencing. Running "yum clean all" fixes the issue for the next run.
HTH, Filipe
