This looks to be addressing different goals;

 sudo yum install -y yum-utils

Is added here to make sure yum-config-manager is installed (which is used below).

yum upgrade will update / upgrade all packages and dependencies installed on the machine. While this could be a good recommendation, this would be somewhat out of scope for the installation instructions.

What's the exact problem you ran into? Did the installation fail, or did it warn that a newer version of a dependency was needed?
