That shows up a lot of Fedora 7 packages that were installed from the 
official repository for me. A sample below. Any ideas why?

pirut.noarch                        1.3.9-1.fc7            installed
pm-utils.i386                       0.99.3-9.fc7           installed
system-config-users.noarch          1.2.61-1.fc7           installed
thunderbird.i386                    2.0.0.5-2.fc7          installed
udev.i386                           113-8.fc7              installed
