[chef] Re: chef-client didn't upgrade yum package

["Castleberry, Bobby" < >]

I believe it depends on which action you called in the resource.  If you 
called it with the action :upgrade and there is a newer version I'm fairly 
certain it does upgrade.  This is generally not considered a safe thing to do 
as upgrades can break.
