abiword for FC5.ppc -- odd glitch in updating

I'm not sure whether this is a Fedora question, an abiword question -- or
a minor glitch not worth posting.

I just finished upgrading a G3 iBook from FC4 to FC5; took forever, even
from a DVD, but went OK. Then, of course, I immediately became root and
did yum update. That got as far as asking me do it, y/n?, and then failed
on abiword.

I went into /etc/yum.conf, added a line saying exclude=abiword, and
immediately did yum update again. 

It ran, and completed. Then I ran yum update a third time, again
immediately. 

Now it got exactly one app : abiword.ppc 1:2.4.2-7.fc5 --
which may be compared to the abiword-2.4.4-2.fc5 that rpm -q shows on one
of my FC5 PCs.

I have no idea what's going on. If anything changed it the repos between
the runs, it may be pure glitch. If so, my apologies for wasting bandwidth.
