I saw the same with pure anaconda upgrade (no pre-upgrade). I guess it was
removing old packages or doing some cleanup. My machine ended up with over 500
duplicating packages (fc9 & fc10 version) and some broken dependencies. Removing
all fc9 packages that had corresponding fc10 packages & doing yum update
afterwards fixed all deps issues and made rpm -V happy again.
