    Yes, urpmi is a beautiful thing. I've been using it for a while to keep our server up to date. "urpmi.update -ac;urpmi --update --auto-select" works fine for this. It automatically updates all of the packages I have installed. It will scan various FTP mirrors I have configured to retrieve all dependancies and install them.
