There was some inconsistent repo the other day that was missing a dependency, so yum would get all the way to the end, then do nothing at all because one package had a missing dependency. I then tried another update with --skip-broken, assuming it was for just these situations, and it did lots more working, checking all kinds of junk, then got to the end and refused to install anything because of a missing dependency in one package. I no longer have any idea what the heck --skip-broken is supposed to be good for, but it clearly doesn't do the one thing I wanted it to do (install the other packages that didn't have any dependency problems and ignore the ones that did). I had to run the update yet again, manually adding exclusions to finally get it to update.
