Why do you think this is not testing real life environments? what gurantees
users are yum upgrading their hosts all time time?
I actually thinks this is representing more the real life than forcing yum
update all the time, if we need a newer pkg then the spec file requirements
should be updated.

One option is to refresh the OS Images on a regular basis, and I believe
Gal is working on on automating the image creation flow which would help
with that.

What would you suggest needs to be changed in OST to reflect a more real
life scenario?
