How do we know that any particular person who installed yum installed anything else? Are you using IP address to try and see what each IP user installed? I can think of... a lot of ways that won't work. ;)
The main issue I see is NAT of course, there are couple of scenarios which will generate incorrect data. But the main goal is to find clusters in data and I hope majority of the log records will be one IP = one user.
Another issue I could see is laptops: as they are often online on other places then home, and Fedora doesn't consider your location before warning you for updates, they might install updates or new packages from multiple IP addresses, and there would be no way to tell that's still the same user.
