Right.

After engine-setup finishes, you should 'yum update' to update the rest.

And BTW, this specific issue about tools-backup was fixed in [1]. So a
future 'yum update' should not emit this error - although the update
sequence is still the same - add repos, update setup packages, engine-setup,
update the rest.
