If you want Fedora-ish packages built for RHEL/CentOS, getting them

       Yes, EPEL is ok, but they're out of date.

If there's not a security issue, that's a feature, not a bug. The OP's
complaint seems to be that the upgrade treadmill breaks things.

Oh, and my recommendation for something simpler would be:
http://roundup.sourceforge.net/
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/repoview/roundup.html
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/x86_64/repoview/roundup.html

       That's another possibility -- but the original request (to stay somewhat
       on topic) is to implement a Change Management Tracking, possibly with
       Approval.

       This is possible in RT using Scrips and custom keywords:

       Would roundup allow this ?

Roundup has role-based permissions, including "signoff" by a manager role:
