If you do a "yum upgrade" rather than a "yum update" to update 4.3 to 4.4, 
yum-conf gets upgraded to yum-conf-4x rather than yum-conf-44. I assume 
this is due to some obsoletes information? Is this what is intended?

If you want to do a proper upgrade, then yum upgrade is the normal command 
as you pick up any obsoleted files... Perhaps yum-conf-4x shouldn't 
obselete yum-conf-44, but should conflict with it?

Thanks

Jeremy
