I literally figured that out yesterday - I'm rolling out the 5.3->5.4
upgrades. One thing though - on some servers that still had 5.2, yum
crashed on sfpio<whatever> I then did yum update yum, and it stopped
dying; though it still failed. *Then* I did yum clean all, and then yum -y
update worked like a charm.
Wish there was a way to tell yum "answer q (rpm default action) to all
questions...."
