--rebuilddb didn't solve it for me either.

I got around it by removing and reinstalling the packages as follows
(mentioned later in original thread last month):

(as root) 
rpm -e --nodeps aspell xemaces-el; up2date --nosig aspell xemacs-el

I'd rather not have needed the --nosig bit but it was necessary with my
config though I think I've imported all the right GPG keys.
 
I don't know whether this was really an up2date/rhn/rpm *bug* or just a
hiccup in the way Fedora was packaged.

If you don't see this in bugzilla and no one follows up saying "not a bug"
then by all means file it.

I get these all the time on both my test boxes, but I think they're
unrelated to the package confusion issue above.

Cheers,

Mark.
