Why all these uncertainty questions? Have either of you checked any of
the F8 and F9 updates repositories? There is only one rpm in F8
updates and a hand full in F9 updates. When you do an update you're
going to get a new fedora-release and/or PackageKit update. After the
update yum will be pointed toward the newkey mirrors.
