If you do not install all updates, then you may be creating a setup that adds problems (some of them security issues that you create). CentOS uses a staged build system, meaning packages built today rely on packages built yesterday, and so on. If you are using a glibc from 3 updates ago with other packages from now, you are not using a tested configuration and it is not at all clear what issues will be introduced. The only recommended install set it all updates installed. Doing anything else introduces risk. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
