Don't have f8 to check...  However, it could be exactly what happened on
my f9 system.  Running "yum update" came back with no packages to
update.  Obviously my system was calling up a mirror that hadn't been
synced yet.  So, I just did a few "yum clean all ; yum update" until a
suitable mirror was accessed.
