I thought I might try preupgrade out on Fedora Core 3:
=====
# rpm -Uvh preupgrade-0.9.2-1.fc8.noarch.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
python(abi) = 2.5 is needed by preupgrade-0.9.2-1.fc8.noarch
yum >= 3.2.8 is needed by preupgrade-0.9.2-1.fc8.noarch
yum-metadata-parser is needed by preupgrade-0.9.2-1.fc8.noarch
[root@f3 davidt]# rpm -Uvh preupgrade-0.9.2-1.fc8.noarch.rpm --nodeps

=====
Is there actually python 2.5 constructs used ?
Could it be built for an earlier release like fc3 ?
This would have to circumvent the maintained distributions policy, but
for good reason; weaning our upgrade adverse users off the no longer
maintained old F2,3,4,5,6 releases.
