I use the rpm version and haven't had this issue (yet...) but please,
whoever works on the update scripts - please do not kill the session
running the updates.   When using NX/freenx in a similar situation I
have had the session where yum was running killed mid-update leaving
the rpm and yum databases horribly confused and it took a day of
fiddling to get things working again.
