The DVD does not include updates when doing the upgrade, which means

fully expected that some packages will not be updated because they're
newer
in Fedora 14 updates than in Fedora 15 GA. Running "yum upgrade" or
"yum
distro-sync" after the DVD upgrade should fix it. (The latter will
also
downgrade packages if even Fedora 15 updates have an older version
than
Fedora 14 updates. Such a situation is actually a bug, but it still
happens
sometimes, so distro-sync is more robust.)
My recommendation is to use preupgrade or
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading_Fedora_using_yum instead of
the
DVD. (The former is the official recommendation, the latter is how I
upgrade
my machines.)
In the #fedora IRC channel I have seen 100 preupgrade failures for every one DVD upgrade
failure roughly, I have nicknamed it preFAILupgrade. So much so I already had a draft
started and was a bit shocked to read it was a DVD upgrade failure... so as always YMMV.
