[CentOS-virt] yum update Failing with libvirt-daemon error

My server is critical to me, but not the public, fortunately. 
I can take it down as I suggested, but am a bit reluctant to do so until I have heard more opinions.
Presumably your system update failed using your script, so it will probably fail for me if I copy it.
I will keep a copy anyway.
