Aparently they are; at least as far as rpmdb is concerned.  It looks
like that you have quite a number of duplicates which suggests that
a "Cleanup" phase was not finished.

Running 'package-cleanup --cleandupes' would likely help.  After
that see if you still have any "orphans" ('package-cleanup --orphans').
At least some of these may have yet updates. 'package-cleanup' is
a program from 'yum-utils' package.

If you have any packages you produced yourself they will likely show
up as "orphans" as "an orphan" here really means "something not in
one of currently enabled repositories".
