I tried to upgrade to FC4 -> FC5, using 'yum upgrade', and it seems
to succeeded after lots of brute force work resolving some broken
dependencies from 3rd party repos.  However, I know some packages
did not upgrade.  The system boots and is usable though.  I guess
the root cause is that some 3rd party repos packages had a higher
version number than the one in fc5.  So here is what I want:

1.   I want to make sure all packages installed are built for fc5.
2.   I want to check all packages and make sure they exist in the
fc5 repos mentioned in the yum.repos.d

I think yum list extras can help you out here.  Just disable the 3rd
party repos (either in the repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d or on the
command line with --disablerepo).

If all of the repos in /etc/yum.repos.d are FC5-based repos (and that includes the third party repos), "yum list extras" should do exactly what the OP wants, i.e. list any packages not found in the fc5 repos mentioned in the yum.repos.d.
