Centos commands: Yum Upgrade versus Yum update

Hi, I would like to know the difference between YUM UPDATE and YUM UPGRADE. The man pages say upgrade is same as update with the obsolete option. And by default it says the obsolete option is turned on, which would make them equivalent. Does not say what obsolete does. Can someone please...

NAME

       yum list data plugin

SYNOPSIS

       yum [options] [command] [package ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This plugin extends yum for some commands that give aggregate package data based on lists of packages

       added yum commands are:
	* list-vendors
	* info-vendors
	* list-rpm-groups
	* info-rpm-groups
	* list-packagers
	* info-packagers
	* list-licenses
	* info-licenses
	* list-arches
	* info-arches
	* list-committers
	* info-committers
	* list-buildhosts
	* info-buildhosts
	* list-baseurls
	* info-baseurls
	* list-package-sizes
	* info-package-sizes
	* list-archive-sizes
	* info-archive-sizes
	* list-installed-sizes
	* info-installed-sizes
	* list-groups
	* info-groups

       all of which take the same arguments as the list and info yum commands. The difference between the list and info varieties is that the info
       versions lists all the packages under each aggregation.

       list-vendors, info-vendors
	      Is used to list the aggregate of the vendor attribute on the packages, examples are "Fedora Project" and "Red Hat, Inc.".

       list-rpm-groups, info-rpm-groups
	      Is used to list the aggregate of the group attribute on the packages, examples are  "Applications/System",  "Development/Tools"  and
	      "System Environment/Base"

       list-packagers, info-packagers
	      Is used to list the aggregate of the packager attribute on the packages, examples are "Fedora Project" and "Red Hat, Inc.".

       list-licenses, info-licenses
	      Is used to list the aggregate of the license attribute on the packages, examples are "GPL" and "MIT"

       list-arches, info-arches
	      Is used to list the aggregate of the arch attribute on the packages, examples are "i386" and "x86_64"

       list-committers, info-committers
	      Is  used to list the aggregate of the committer attribute on the packages, this is taken from the most recent changelog entry of the
	      package.

       list-buildhosts, info-buildhosts
	      Is used to list the aggregate  of  the  buildhost  attribute  on	the  packages,	examples  are  "mybuilder.example.com"	and  "xen-
	      builder1.fedora.redhat.com"

       list-baseurls, info-baseurls
	      Is  used	to  list  the  aggregate  of  the  url	attribute  on  the  packages  after  discarding  the path of the URL, examples are
	      "http://yum.baseurl.org/" and "http://www.and.org/"

       list-package-sizes, info-package-sizes
	      Is used to list the aggregate of specified ranges the packagesize attribute on the packages, examples are "[    1B -  10KB ]" and "[
	      750KB -	1MB ]".

       list-archive-sizes, info-archive-sizes
	      Is used to list the aggregate of specified ranges the archivesize attribute on the packages, examples are "[    1B -  10KB ]" and "[
	      750KB -	1MB ]".

       list-installed-sizes, info-installed-sizes
	      Is used to list the aggregate of specified ranges the installedsize attribute on the packages, examples are "[	1B -  10KB ]"  and
	      "[ 750KB -   1MB ]".

       list-groups, info-groups
	      Is used to list the aggregate of the yum groups that the packages are in, examples are in "yum grouplist". Note that in yum groups a
	      package can be in more than one group at a time.

       It is worth noting that some of the above data can be "unknown", to yum, at which point a separate aggregation called "--  Unknown  --"	is
       listed.

EXAMPLES

       To list all the groups that have an update, along with the number of packages in each group, use:

	      yum list-rpm-groups updates

       To list all the committers to packages that have yum in their name, use:

	      yum list-committers 'yum*'

       To list ranges of the sizes of packages installed or available, use:

	      yum list-package-sizes

       To list yum groups that have an update, use:

	      yum list-groups
