Let me relate my experience with 8.2.x (and earlier) builds.  Every 
time I tried an "incremental" olpc-update, it found some sort of a 
mis-matched file -- and switched over to performing some other kind 
of (I presume a "full") update.  The end result was that the (wall 
clock) time during which my internet connection was "busy" was 
longer than if I had asked for a "full" olpc-update to begin with.
[It may have been the fact that I apply additional packages, etc., 
after installing each new build - that may have been the cause of 
olpc-update deciding to abandon its "incremental" mode.]

Regarding adopting a specific set of package versions -- I am 
normally concerned only with getting "up-to-date" (i.e., "latest") 
packages when I do 'yum upgrade <package-name>'.  But if I *needed* 
a specific version, I would use 'yumdownloader <package-version>' 
and then use 'rpm' (+ appropriate flags) to explicitly install it.
