RPM Updates?

I found a simpler solution.  Drop all the new RPMs into Redhat/RPMS and
run the package-re-order.  Although your solution seems better since
there won't be double versions of some packages.

There's some info on this topic in the Fedora Wiki ... personally, I use
a
python script I found on the web (attached to this email, for
conveience's
sake) to merge RPMs into my install tree. It takes care of both
additions and
updates properly.
