Now Apache is istalled....
It may have been a new dependency of an already-installed package.
What syntax do I use to only "update" the packages I have currently
installed?
"yum update" is correct.
Now I have to reinstall since I am not 100% sure of what else was
installed...
Look in /var/log/yum.log to see what got installed.
You could also do:
# yum remove httpd
to find out what package(s) has/have dependencies on httpd. Yum will
propose to remove them along with httpd. You may find that the list
includes packages you actually want, so be prepared to reply "n" when
yum asks for confirmation of the deletion.
