Yum quickly prompts you to confirm that you want to uninstall all the listed packages and then does so if you say yes. Update Packages To update a package – or all packages – use the yum update package_name or yum update command. If you prefer a GUI, launch the Package Updater, pup, from a console through the desktop menu. Pup is part of the pirut package, which you set up via yum install pirut. The yum update daemon will even up- date the whole system. To allow this to happen, you need to set the do_update entry to yes in your /etc/yum/yum-up- datesd.conf configuration file (Listing 2). At boot time, chkconfig tells you whether or not the updatesd service is launched automatically: # chkconfig --list | grep -i yum Figure 2: If pirut is too spartan for your taste, try yum extender.
