Yum disaster! DELETED mysql!

So, why didn't yum do it until now? I have done '#yum -y -update' hundreds
of times on this system. I didn't change anything on mysql.
um..For some silly reason I have Amarok on this machine. Since the latest
version of Amarok uses mysql (so I read) could it be that Amarok told yum to
do it.

And as far as rtfm, yes, but yum should warn before doing a mass deletion
like that. The -y switch is for updates, not deletions!
