The two location below are not, or at least don't seem to be, in the 
standard repository hierarchy.  I used wget to pull them down to the 
system and used rpm to install them.  So ... you won't be able to just 
"yum update" unless you add an entry in yum.repos.d for both of them.

It would be nice to see the latest or nearly latest available via a 
simple yum update.
