that funny "duplication" existed for a few other packages. i removed
them manually, then tried the update again and that's when things
melted down entirely. that's when i gave up and just did a
re-install.
i will *not* be doing an update, apart from the rpm/yum-related
packages.

can get a VM working well enough.
I don't mind encouraging others to further adventures.
