It does not affect any existing CentOS installation at all.  The only time the 
Upstream Provider will drop a package is when they roll out a brand new major 
version --e.g. CentOS 6.x => 7.x.  A system update will never change the major 
version; all that happens is that security patches get installed and 
(sometimes) the minor version (e.g. 5.5 => 5.6) gets changed.  A package will 
never be dropped as part of that process.

So, update with confidence.  :)

Cheers!
