A couple ideas:
1. You could run weekly from a scrpt:
yum --assumeno update
which will create the transaction (but not install it) and save it to
/tmp/ and then rerun that transaction week later:
yum --assumeyes load-transaction
/tmp/yum_save_tx.2021-11-14.13-54.FhQii3.yumtx
2. Write a yum plugin to mask packages from the transaction sack that
are less than 7 days old. How are your python skills?
