Nope, this has nothing to do with the updater. If you can actually get 3rd party yum archives to work in it, you'd be the first one to do it that I know of.

That wget line is just setting up extra yum repositories, it doesn't update any packages. You do that by running 'yum update'. If you don't want PHP 5.2, you might want to exclude php* from the atomic section.

FC5 is no longer receiving security patches from the Fedora Project by the way.

That means that when a security flaw is found in apache or any other component of your distribution (kernel, BIND nameserver, etc.) no fix will be created by the Fedora Project (nor by SWsoft, they only update the packages they provide) and so your system will start having more and more known vulnerabilities. The Fedora Project only supports their latest two releases at any point in time, which are currently Fedora 7 and Fedora Core 6.

Fedora doesn't have a very long lifecycle (~13 months of security patches before it goes EOL) and since people generally want to leave their servers running for longer than that a lot of people here seem to be recommending to use something like CentOS instead (7 years of security patches).
