Red Hat, and other vendors, do make this easy. Red Hat offers the Red Hat Network Proxy and Satellite servers. Ximian offers Red Carpet Enterprise. And you can setup your own yum, apt4rpm, or current servers. All of these solutions allow you to easily upgrade/install any software you want, regardless of whether they have passed Red Hat QA.
