Interesting, thanks.

We don't really expect deployments to do a yum update in this way.

I'm not so sure about that.

No, it's still there.  I was able to download it.  The repodata hasn't
changed.  Perhaps you had a momentary network problem.  If you'd like to
test it, try again, and remember that you have to manually update the
boot configuration afterwards.  Then after reboot, check with "uname -a"
to see that you are using the new kernel.
