	I tried various things that failed, and finally tried "yum 
remove" against all the packages in the error message that had 
"installed" after them. After that, "yum update" reported success and 
completion.

	I had done two things. Before my brain was in gear, I had 
commanded "yum update" -- running on a live CD. Also, I think after that, 
I did preupgrade. 

	The machine did run during all this, and took most other commands 
as it usually had -- except just for updating.

	Many thanks to both who replied!
