I don't understand what you mean when you say "batch yum updates into smaller chunks". I usually just do a "yum update", eyeball the packages that it thinks I need, then hit ENTER to agree to the update. What does this "batching" involve?

10 Run "yum check-update". 20 Look at the list of packages to be updated. 30 Stop if there aren't any. 40 Pick several arbitrarily. 50 REM Although I suggest starting with python-sqlite -- see other thread. 60 Run "yum -y update onepackagename anotherpackagename maybeathird". 70 goto 10

Wow, suitable for parsing on my TRS-80. :)

Thanks!
