Thanks, but it didn't help; nothing I do seems to get rid of this errant
cups F8 package. I was hoping maybe --skip-broken might be a temporary
workaround, but no:
$sudo yum -y --skip-broken update

Error: Missing Dependency: libldap-2.3.so.0 is needed by package

As I mentioned earlier, rpm doesn't see it, only yum:
$ rpm -aq | grep cups
libgnomecups-0.2.3-3.fc9.i386
cupsddk-drivers-1.2.3-4.fc9.i386
cups-1.3.7-1.fc9.i386
hal-cups-utils-0.6.16-3.fc9.i386
cups-libs-1.3.7-1.fc9.i386
I remain open to suggestions...
Okay. Give some more details.
yum list cups fedora-release
yum repolist
cat /var/cache/yum/updates/mirrorlist.txt
Note that you need to run "yum clean metadata" as root.
It still looks like you have a Fedora 8 updates repository
enabled somewhere in /etc/yum*
You don't see the 1.3.7-2.fc9 update yet, which is an indication
that the Fedora 9 updates repository is missing.
