Also note:

% cat /tmp/python-abi-wtf.py
#! /usr/bin/python -tt

import yum

yb=yum.YumBase()
for pkg in sorted(yb.pkgSack.returnPackages()):
    for req in pkg.requires_print:
        if not req.startswith("python(abi)"): continue
        if req == "python(abi) = 2.6": continue
        print pkg.repo.id,pkg,req
% sudo python /tmp/python-abi-wtf.py
Loaded plugins: local, presto

fedora ris-linux-0.4-6.fc12.noarch python(abi) >= 2.1

...what yum does with >= is much less well defined, but you'll probably be fine
... and most of the above are probably bugs anyway (Eg. revisor-cli also has a
Requires: python(abi) = 2.6).
 But I'd save the above script and run it periodically to make sure no one does
anything weird you aren't expecting (being a trail blazer and all :).
