no. I've always thought that was a backward concept of 'update'. If a
package is not installed then you can't update it. An update is when you
apply a newer package over an older one.

The first time I ran rpm -Uvh *.rpm and it installed ALL of them instead
of just updating the ones I had installed I was appalled and surprised.
