After reading all the problems with the x86-64 update, I'm in a quandry as to update this machine or not. Nothing that I am aware of is broken, and at least everything I use works. This is NOT a production machine, but it does have some important software that needs to run twice daily, and I sure don't want to break things for that. If upgrade is not necessary, how do I go about turning off that red exclaimation point on the upper menu bar? Just tell it to ignore everything?

update it.
do a 'yum update yum' then 'yum update kernel* audit*' reboot the machine and do a full yum update

That advice worked for me. The only negative thing I've noticed so far is a ton of messages in /var/log/messages from dbus regarding the audit system. At this point, I don't know what they mean but nothing critical seems to be broken.
