Upgrading fc6 -> f7 with problems

[Mogens Kjaer]

I just did an upgrade fc6 to f7 using an f7 i386 DVD.

No warnings or errors.

Reboot,

yum update

Then I get a message: "No module named rpm" and
no update.

It turned out that several of the packages needed
for yum (e.g. python-rpm) were newer in the updated
fc6 than on the f7 DVD I used for the installation,
so after the upgrade the machine still had the fc6
packages.

I had to manually "rpm --force -Uvh rpm-python.." for
a couple of packages to get yum to run at all.

Shouldn't the upgrade process upgrade package-x-fc6 to
package-y-f7 even though x>y?
