Did yum actually install those packages? Check /var/log/yum.log.

No, they are not shown as installed in /var/log/yum.log.
I'll repeat the attempt to use yum for updating with a package this morning. I'll set the debug to 5 and see if that yields anything.
Hmm. Did they reach /var/cache/yum/$REPO-NAME/packages (probably /var/cache/yum/updates-released/packages)?
If so, try cd-ing there and running rpm --checksig on them.
James.
Yes, they did reach there. Here is the result.

There are more packages here than just those from the instance reported. There were 10 in that instance. I am 90% sure those 10 are listed above, but don't have a terminal output from the instance to verify that.
I suppose I should check the current state of all these packages to see if they match or exceed these versions?
