rhlupdate
rhlupdate is a small configurable perl script that will connect to your favorite Red Hat site and update all of the RPMS you have installed. It also allows you to specify what packages not to upgrade.It's there, you just have to look a bit around...
Have you ever used apt-get? These tools like rhlupdate and rpmfind are not exactly like apt-get.. which is an awesome program.
Agreed! And that is what I am looking for.
Also, I did finally get YUP to pass the sanity checks (dependencies), but it still isn't quite what I am looking for, as it provides no way of selecting which packages I want to install (manually), or just downloading them rather than installing them. I don't like to download a massive number of RPMS and have them all automatically installed :)

Of course.. advanced selection and options, etc. are on the TODO list. It is only version 0.5.4, after all. :)
