[Yum-devel] How does YUM update YUM

[Creative Innovative]

Folks,
 
I am really curious to know, how does YUM take care of updating to a newer version of YUM.
 
Normally, when there is a package upgrade, the older version of the package is first erased, and then the newer version of the package is installed.
 
So in the case of YUM having to upgrade itself to a newer version of YUM, how is this handled, since YUM is running to update software.
 
Please let me know.
 
thanks,
 
SK
