Using a similar procedure to the FAQ, which included everything but the yum
update yum, I did yum upgrade and get an error -  It is looking for libpython,
which is installed.

#yum upgrade 
--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: libpython2.3.so.1.0 for package: koffice
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: libpython2.3.so.1.0 is needed by package 
koffice
# rpm -ql python | grep libpython2.3.so.1.0
/usr/lib/libpython2.3.so.1.0
# rpm -q yum
yum-2.2.0-0.fc3

I removed koffice, upgraded yum and am trying again.
