This has always been the case with the updates dirs. It typically means that there have been multiple updates since the release. I have done several things to work around this while keeping my install tree updated so that all new network installs will automatically have the newest versions. There have been several scripts posted to the list that automate the process of moving the latest ones to a dir. I have ended up creating an installtion tree that is really hardlinks to the correct package, either the original or the latest one from the updates dir. FWIW rpm pukes on symlinked packages. This senario leaves all packages intact for trouble shooting / downgrading and saves a bootload of harddrive space.
