Yum Upgrade

[Itamar Reis Peixoto]

according with man yum

update If run without any packages, update will update every currently installed package.  If one or more packages are specified, Yum will only update the  listed  packages.   While
              updating  packages, yum will ensure that all dependencies are satisfied.  If no package matches the given package name(s), they are assumed to be a shell glob and any matches
              are then installed.

              If the --obsoletes flag is present yum will include package obsoletes in its calculations - this makes it better for  distro-version  changes,  for  example:  upgrading  from
              somelinux 8.0 to somelinux 9.

  What is the difference between yum update and yum upgrade?
  I never do yum upgrade, but yum update at most.
