CentOS 5.4 is out so if you haven't upgraded yet, check the release notes before running your next "yum update."

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...." mark
