This is one approach that we can try for the future, the main issue at
hand is also that these are all security updates.
Also, keep in mind that most of the 5.<X>.<Y> stuff has little or no
relevance once you have installed the machine - few people run 'yum -y
update' from a 6 hourly cron job. Most people tend to move along a
tested line. There should not be anything in the package tree's that
creates any of the issues that you mention - if there are, its bad
packaging. If Ver X of pkgA needs Ver >= Z of pkg B to work, that should
be reflected in the package manifests at the rpm level.
btw, this 'upstream QA' thing you speak of - are you sure it exists ? :)
