Hi,
   while updating rawhide today it failed, even using --skip-broken.  No 
surprise here. :-)

Following rawhide wisdom I decided to update by chunks.

Since I am curious about kde 4.1 I have updated kde* first, what follows is a 
list of problems I encountered:

$ yum update kde*
...
Error: Transaction Check Error:
  file /usr/share/config.kcfg/pimemoticons.kcfg from install of 
kdepimlibs-4.0.72-2.fc10.i386 conflicts with file from package 
kdepim-3.5.9-9.fc9.i386

To avoid this problem I updated while removing kdepim, this lead to the 
removal of tellico (note to self, do something about it) but it succeeded. I 
had some hiccups during the way:

...
  Updating  : qt                           ####################### [16/87]
Error unpacking rpm package 1:qt-4.4.0-1.fc10.i386
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/lib/qt4/bin: cpio: rename
...
  Updating  : kdegames                     ####################### [36/87]
Cannot overwrite existing module

...
  Cleanup   : kdesdk-libs                  ####################### [86/87]
Unable to look at what's on dbus

Since qt-4.4.0 was not installed I had to do it by hand.
