If the dependencies of the two different versions of RPM are same, would yum update remove and install dependencies too?
Does yum update uninstall and install the dependencies?
linux;yum
Simple answer is no. The YUM updater is smart enough to determine dependencies in the installed package manifest. For example:Say you have two packages:Package_1.0.rpmDependent_package_1.0.rpmAnd you want to upgrade Package_1.0.rpm to Package_2.0.rpm but the dependency is still Dependent_package_1.0.rpm, YUM will do the following:yum update Package_1.0Would you like to install Package_2.0?It's smart enough to know that Dependent_package_1.0 satisfies the dependencies for both Package_1.0 and Package_2.0
