The first thing to do is to remove all traces of Ximian RPMs from your
system ("rpm -qa | grep -i ximian") will get you a list.
To handle the dependency issues, make a note of any packages that
require the Ximian RPMs (e.g., when package A-Ximian says it needs
package B-Ximian) -- remove all the Ximian packages (ignoring the
dependencies that would prevent removal, "rpm -e --nodeps {package
name}", then replace the required packages with the "clean" (i.e.,
distribution supplied) packages.
Once that's done, you can safely upgrade to FC1. I had to do this when
upgrading from RH8. It should be fairly painless if you're careful to
replace all necessary packages.
