Success!

I've updated two boxes by doing
# yum upgrade yum sqlite python-sqlite
and then
# yum upgrade

If I understand correctly, my problem this time was caused by me trying to 
be cautious to avoid a problem similar to the last previous major update. If 
I had done
# yum upgrade
I had not run into the conflict, right?

Should not sqlite depend on python-sqlite if python-sqlite needs to be 
updated first?

I'll continue my botched updates when I get back to the office tomorrow.

Thank you all .-)
