I'm looking for the 'correct way' to figure out what did change inside a
package once it comes up with e.g. yum check-update. Is this something
yum can help me with?

There is a yum changelog plugin:
        man yum-changelog yum-changelog.conf

If
        /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/changelog.conf
contains
        when=pre
then
        yum --changelog --downloadonly update
seems to show the changes without installing the packages.
