I have had to deal with this problem, usually due to updates that are
unsupported by 3rd party apps. You can exclude individual packages
from your updates. I think this article should help. 

 Quoting "Rose, John B" :


It seems as though “yum” update has replaced Apache modules    
installed in the default installation, that we had removed after   
the  initial install because they weren’t used.

Is there some way to prevent that from happening?

thanks

There is a yum option to exclude specific packages from a yum update.  I 
seem to recall that it is --exclude  but you can find it in the 
man 
file.

The newer version of yum, dnf, is a bit more flexible if you have the 
option 
to update, and the command for dnf is -x
