I saw some instability yesterday with which updates were available,
depending on which mirrors were used.  I did a "yum update", saw the huge
list, and cancelled it.  Later I did a "yum clean headers" and "yum clean
metadata", and then "yum update", and got nothing to do for a couple of
tries (spread over longer than the yum caching interval, so the repos were
checked).  Later, I got the whole thing again.  I imagine the shear size of
the update, which includes a new OOo, may have caused some of the mirrors
to be not up to date.

In any case, now is a good time to hold off updating, what with the
problematic new 2107 kernel and the new and probably problematic OOo.  Wait
a few days.  There should be a new kernel shortly after they find the
problem, and any issues with the new OOo will have come to light.
