Fine. But you might need to "rpm --rebuilddb", too.

What do you get for "rpm -qa kernel\*"?

That's not a Fedora package. Where does it come from?
What do you get for "rpm -qa alsa-kmdl\*"? It is older than the kernel update.

How did you check it? It doesn't matter whether the file exists. When
verifying you must prove that the file exists in the RPM database (rpm
--query --whatprovides /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22.9-91.fc7) and is still
available in the update transaction. Updates can remove files, too.
Also show "repoquery --whatprovides /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22.9-91.fc7").

What does "rpm -q specspo" print?
Does "rpm -qai kernel" work?
