You were right on. Each of 17 packages had two versions and I was able to remove the older one with rpm -e in each case.
The only problem with that is that the upgrade may not have finished, so there is no guarantee that you have a complete package. Try rpm -vV to check package integrity, eg. rpm -vV httpd and if there is are errors (some like httpd.conf are standard) try reinstalling, rpm -Uvh --replacefiles --replacepkgs httpd*rpm should work.

Indeed, most of the packages had missing files. I've downloaded all the updates to install. One more question. I have an athlon xp processor. None of the affected packages have an athlon specific version, but glibc and openssl have both i686 and i386 packages. Should I install from the i686 packages?
