Thanks for the information - Sorry for the mistake, just thought that some one 
might be kind enough to point me in the correct direction is all.

This is a F14 machine that was updated from FC 12, there are a number of FC12 
still installed, which I understood would exist until they are super seeded by 
a FC14 package when it became available.

So I need to somehow clean-up the system - not sure how though.
