[Spacewalk-list] question regarding yum

[Matthew Madey]

It's important to note that you may get different results between these two
methods. Scheduling updates via the web interface will update packages to
the versions specified in the Errata. Whereas the command line will update
to the latest version available in the channel. I've had circumstances
where this was a concern, and used the command yum update-minimal
--security to ensure I'm installing the versions specified in the Errata.
Just an FYI.
