[CentOS] problems with yum and 4.3-->4.4

Are the problems with yum in the Centos 4.3->>4.4 upgrade process due to a forked or obsolete version of yum?

I briefly scanned https://lists.dulug.duke.edu and didn't see any problems, but did see some incidents regarding yum hangs reported about a year ago.

regarding the current upgrade, Seth Vidal in https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/pipermail/linux/2006-September/000569.html wrote:

No replies added to the thread indicating the folks at Duke aren't having problems with the update to Centos 4.4 whereas folks on the Centos list have reported quite a few problems.
