Doubtful. What is the version of yum on the

rpm -qa | grep yum
yum-3.2.28-3.fc14

since it's been replaced by rpm --oldpackage .
yes, that was it:
yum-3.2.28-4.fc13
however, yum could have figured that putting a fc14 package over a
fc13 one is happening for one and only one reason ....
Trying to make yum 'smart' to deal with this kind of packaging problem
is a really bad idea and would just lead to other stuff breaking in
weird fashion, most likely. The correct fix is to not push updates like
this, which will be sorted by AutoQA in future.
This has been dealt with, now - a yum-3.2.28-5 has been pushed to f13
and f14 which makes sure that the f14 package is versioned higher than
f12's and f13's, so f12-f14 and f13-f14 upgrades should be okay now (as
far as *this* problem is concerned), once the problem with updates not
actually showing up in the updates repo is solved.
