Yeah, that's what I did.  Funny thing is that the only package that
urpmi thought should be updated was "setup".  All of the others,
(XFree*, etc.) did not get updated.  However if I do the same command:

rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME}\n" | egrep -v -f /tmp/remove_pkg | xargs
urpmi

a second time, it does go out and upgrade them all.  Does it seem right
that it needed to be done twice, the first time only updating "setup"
and the subsequent time to update the rest of the packages?  Hey maybe I
will need to do it a third (and fourth and fifth, etc.) time to get them
all to finally update.  Thots on this?

So back to my original idea.  :-)
