A second question, if I may. Would I expect that a later

I tell the version of a "yum" file before doing "yum update" or
"yum install xorg"?
You can run "yum list updates" to show you what needs
updating. It will give you a list of packages with
version info. Here's more info from the yum man page,
LIST OPTIONS
The following are the ways which you can invoke yum in list mode. Note that all list commands include information
on the version of the package.
yum list [all | regexp1] [regexp2] [...]
List all available and installed packages.
yum list available [regexp1] [...]
List all packages in the yum repositories available to be installed.
yum list updates [regexp1] [...]
List all packages with updates available in the yum repositories.
