My AMD box in the other room updated just fine.
yum clean
yum check-update
yum update
yum update
[a little running back and forth between an X11 unprivileged session
looking at the keys and a wheel user console session importing and
fingerprinting]
shutdown -r now
[seems to be running as well as it was, haven't figured out the new
input method for Japanese yet, PS-2 mouse is still erratic]
My iBook G4 went through the first update, and right at the end of
the last cleanup transaction (PackageKit), gave me a traceback.
Something about (copied by hand, to practice my touch-typing ;)

I think I got that right.
I checked the new keys and they are in place in /etc/pki/rpm-gpg .
Anyone else seen this? Is it worth a bug report?
What's the usual thing to do next? keep yumming?
Is there a yum command to check yum's internal consistency?
