Not really. The above two bugs are duplicates of something that yum does 
and if there is indeed a bug you should just file or reassign it against 
yum and not file different ones against individual graphical front end's.

Having said that it appears that you are using third party repositories 
and upgraded without their F7 equivalents being enabled. Yum is doing 
the right thing is this case.  What you should do is install or enable 
the Fedora 7 repository for whatever third party repository you are 
using and run yum update or remove those packages and install them again 
from the F7 equivalent.
