For preupgrade it shouldn't matter, because it does a full anaconda based 
upgrade, booting from the install image, and that will include all the 
required package versions. The difference between preupgrade and a DVD 
based upgrade is that preupgrade assembles the packages you are going 
to need on local disks before booting from the install image, rather than 
relying on the standard collection from the DVD.
