That's a build with the odd epoch numbers, which YUM won't update further.
So
you have to - once - upgrade from the tarball. Once that is done, you can
"yum update" again and will stay current.
How to do the upgrade - as root - from the command line:
mkdir /home/install
cd /home/install
wget \
ftp://bluequartz.org/pub/BlueQuartz/5100R/CentOS4/tgz/BlueQuartz-5100R-CentO
S4-i386-2006091301.tar.gz
tar zxvf BlueQuartz-5100R-CentOS4-i386-2006091301.tar.gz
Then change to the directory into which the files were unpacked. It's
probably
named "BlueQuartz-5100R-CentOS4-i386-2006091301" or something like that.
There you run a script that's either called "update.sh" or "upgrade.sh". I
never can't remember the correct name offhand.
It'll upgrade BlueQuartz to the latest version. Once that is done run "yum
update" to fetch all patches that were released since that tarball was
built.
