This causes the cleanup to not get done for the 100 that were installed. I tend to not use a yum update that would update all of the packages at once when I know a bunch of updates are pending like going from one release to another for that reason. I get a list of all updates and update them one by one so that if yum fails in the middle only the last update(and dependencies for that one update) would be affected. It would be nice if yum had an option to do this(perform cleanup after each package is installed). I created a script to do this(I called it safeyumupdate.sh) but I can't seem to find it anymore.
