quite possibly more a yum question than a centos question, but i'm a
bit confused about the difference between listing "available" packages
versus "updates" packages.

again, some fairly trivial(?) questions about working with centos
7.4, given my time immersed in fedora so i want to make sure i'm not
carrying over any bad habits.
first, is there anything untoward in updating an installed version
of centos 7.4 with a simple "yum update"? i'm well aware of
(apologies for what will be some upcoming trivial questions, but i'm
jumping back into centos after years and years of living with fedora,
so i'm feeling fairly comfortable, just the occasional centos-specific
question.)
is the wiki repos page fairly up to date?
an entire chapter, are there
any official centos/rhel reference sheets like that? if not, i can
just write my own and post them at my wiki. thanks for any pointers.
