Even within FC6 anaconda isn't properly updated. The parted updates and
possibly mkinitrd updates broke anaconda. The version in testing also didn't
work properly with the latest parted and mkinitrd. In order to do a respin
with updates I ended up downgrading parted, pyparted and mkinitrd.
It would be nice if anaconda were kept in better sync with its dependencies.
Presumably this will be better in FC7 as respins will be more normal there
than they are now.
