There may be a more automated method but I ran into some issues
orphaned packages after upgrading with preupgrade and did the
following for each problem package:
Uninstall the old package:
rpm -e --nodeps <package>
Install the new package:
yum install <package>
You can avoid having to break dependencies by using yum shell (man yum-shell):
yum shell
remove <package>
install <package>
run
It checks that all dependencies will be satisfied at the end before doing the
transaction. You can also put all your removes and installs in a single large
transaction to save time.
