This is a known issue.

You need to compile a list of rpms you have that originate from non-Fedora yum repositories, and nuke them.

You can reinstall them after the upgrade, and after you've updated the core Fedora 8 install with all the current updates.


OK, but what an issue!
Does it apply to FC7 too?

That looks ridiculously laborious.
Maybe easier to build a new system off-line and switch over to it.

# rpm -qa | wc -l
1672
# rpm -qa | grep fc4 | wc -l
259

I don't think that's a useful guide. Use
 rpm -qa --qf '%{name} %{BUILDHOST}\n'
to see who built what.
to see what else you can query,
rpm --querytags | less
