In addition to the package update there are 106 new packages to be installed. I can understand the ones that are texlive-xxxx but common why on the earth I would like to install all the other devel packages on a machine which is not used for building sofware, that is what obs is for.
Here are the new packages that the patch wants to install:
font-util freeglut-devel gccmakedep glu-devel imake libdmx-devel libdrm-devel libfontenc-devel libFS6 libFS-devel libgbm-devel libICE-devel libkms-devel liblbxutil1 liblbxutil-devel liboldX6 liboldX-devel libOSMesa9 libOSMesa-devel libpciaccess-devel libpixman-1-0-devel libSM-devel libudev-devel libvnc-devel libVncExt2 libWindowsWM7 libWindowsWM-devel libX11-devel libXau-devel libXaw6 libXaw7 libXaw8 libXaw-devel libxcb-devel libxcb-dpms0 libxcb-record0 libxcb-res0 libxcb-screensaver0 libxcb-sync0 libxcb-xevie0 libxcb-xf86dri0 libxcb-xinerama0 libxcb-xprint0 libxcb-xtest0 libxcb-xvmc0 libXcliplist1 libXcliplist-devel libXcomposite-devel libXcursor-devel libXdamage-devel libXdmcp-devel libXevie-devel libXext-devel libXfixes-devel libXfontcache-devel libXfont-devel libXft-devel libXi-devel libXinerama-devel libxkbfile-devel libxkbui1 libxkbui-devel libXmu-devel libXp-devel libXpm-devel libXprintAppUtil1 libXprintAppUtil-devel libXprintUtil-devel libXrandr-devel libXrender-devel libXres-devel libXScrnSaver-devel libXt-devel libXTrap6 libXTrap-devel libXtst-devel libXv-devel libXvMC-devel libXxf86dga-devel libXxf86misc-devel libXxf86vm-devel lndir makedepend Mesa-devel Mesa-libEGL-devel Mesa-libglapi-devel Mesa-libGL-devel Mesa-libGLESv1_CM1 Mesa-libGLESv1_CM-devel Mesa-libGLESv2-devel Mesa-libIndirectGL1 Mesa-libIndirectGL-devel python-xcb-proto-devel texlive-environ texlive-media9 texlive-movie15 texlive-preview texlive-pst-pdf xbitmaps-devel xcb-util-devel xorg-cf-files xorg-sgml-doctools xorg-x11-devel xorg-x11-proto-devel xorg-x11-util-devel xtrans

I went ahead with the update and then deleted all *-devel packages except kernel related for video driver.
The following package is going to be downgraded: texlive-asymptote 2012.67.2.21svn29349-4.6.1 -> 2012.60.2.13svn23068-4.2.1
1 package to downgrade, 123 to remove. Overall download size: 279.7 KiB. After the operation, 266.8 MiB will be freed.

Yes, that can be done but to me the update is broken, why would I be in need to delete unneeded devel packages. The update package should not be installing these in the first places.
I filed a bug against it bnc# 833498
