I ran into this too.  iproute is not the problem as it hasn't changed
since FC3t1 initial release.  I suspect that something in the SELinux
stuff is interfering with its installation.  There are absolutely no
other indications of errors during the install.  I retreated to FC3t1
and did an "upgrade" install from rawhide and it works fine.  The only
apparent difference from Charlie's install to mine is that I use HTTP.
