That's not entirely true. I had some remote filesystems mounted using SSHFS
in a subdirectory to my home directory, and Yum complained about some
access permission in those remote directories when doing an update. I had
no idea why it would want to touch anything there.
That certainly is unusual. I have no idea what yum would be doing
poking around in /home/user/
SELinux updates check all the perms...
