Now I just want to know how to deal with the remaining 15 f10 packages.
Maybe there isn't any f11 equivalent for them?
That did occur to me. If they are unused I don't suppose that they matter. If they are (correctly) being used, that's fine. However there are some on the list that surely don't come into those categories - iptables, sudo and libtar, for instance. This is the list
google-gadgets-0.10.5-7 libdcp4client-4.0.0-35 neon-0.28.4-1.1 iptables-ipv6-1.4.3.2-1 ca-certificates-2009-1 kbackup-0.5.4-1 GeoIP-1.4.6-2 libtalloc-1.2.0-31 compat-db45-4.5.20 sudo-1.7.1-2 kompose-0.5.3-13 iptables-1.4.3.2-1 google-gadgets-qt-0.10.5-7 libtar-1.2.11-11 kipi-plugins-0.3.0-1

I've just checked over at download.fedora.redhat.com
and using the example of iptables
Current version f10 is: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Everything/i 386/os/Packages/iptables-1.4.1.1-2.fc10.i386.rpm
Current version f11 is: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/11/Everything/i 386/os/Packages/iptables-1.4.3.1-1.fc11.i586.rpm
So I need to ask from where you got iptables?
Nothing is from a strange source. I didn't check 'rpm -qi' before following the rest of your instructions, so I can't be precise.
Have you set priorities in the repo files?
Not on this system - I must do that once we're sorted.
One of the things that you can try to do is an example run
rpm -e --nodeps --justdb iptables iptables-ipv6
This won't break your system, but it will remove package reference from the rpm database. Then try:
yum install iptables iptables-ipv6
That solved many of them. compat-db45 and libtar re-installed the fc10 version, so I guess I can forget about them.
I used the same method to dis-associate kdebase and reinstall it. Now dolphin is working again. I'll file this tip for future reference. Thanks
