That's something entirely different and not a valid comparison.
Anaconda's kickstart file lists packages/package groups but not package
version-release and does not track any updates applied after installation.

If Fedora 16 release works, but Fedora 16 with Updates doesn't, one needs
to track down which update (or test-update) is the culprit.
