Just guessing here but if you are using preupgrade then you will end up
really using anaconda with a customized local repository so I would be
surprised if you would not hit the same bug again.

OTOH at least on one system I did run 'yum --distro-sync ...' moving
from F14 to F16 and this worked just fine.  If, in a cleanup phase, you
will get stuck with higher versions of some packages than equivalents in
F16 then run 'yum downgrade ....' with a list of such packages and that
should take care of the issue.  You can really use for that a list of
"orphans".  If something is a real orphan it will be skipped on a
downgrade.
