You need to do a 'yum clean metadata' *first*, then do a 'yum update', then
everything will work properly without a 'ping pong' effect. It was posted
yesterday in this message:

A bunch of the packages in the FC development tree were resigned today.
You will want to run "yum clean metadata" before using tomorrow's push.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
