i have to disagree with you on this issue.

iirc, my last 5x was 5.9. i first ran "yum update" and then ran "yum upgrade",
both ran with out any problems.

my /etc/reddhat-release shows;

     Scientific Linux release 6.3 (Carbon)


i did not check to insure that all packages are now at 6.3, but i would
presume that they are.
