I have no problems now but did have some strange entries with multiple 
versions of rpms caused by a bad transaction run. There is a possibility 
that the old database entry in rpm is still present for some version of 
parted that is installed on your system.
What version(s) of parted does your system show installed?

I have the below information regarding parted.

  locate libparted
/usr/lib/libparted-1.8.so.0
/usr/lib/libparted-1.8.so.0.0.0
[prompt]$ rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/libparted-1.8.so.0
parted-1.8.0-1.fc6
