Hi
Then provide this output of packages before and after the upgrade when using the smart and when using yum and file a bug report against yum in http://bugzilla.redhat.com. Fedora Core developers do not seem to want to include smartpm with FC for the other behaviors of its dependency resolving algorithm but yum developers might implement any of its good features still that is consistent in line with the yum dependency resolver design.Smart did NOT downgrade in this case. IIUC, what it did is what I consider optimal, it offered to upgrade the rest of the packages that didn't have aproblem.
