yum update fails - test pup's capabilities..

[Doug Fordham]

Unfortunately, no...I have tried using commas, semicolons, colons, etc.
No mention is given in the man page (or other documentation), outlining
usage other than what is in the example below; and experimentation has
proved fruitless. You can, however, install "yumex" (YUM Extender),
which provides a GUI allowing one to deselect specific packages...
