Kernel-2.6.24-0.118.rc5.git6.fc9 locking update transactions

[Jim Cornette <fct-cornette insight rr com>]

How do you get the kernel to install with this error or give up updating 
cleanly? The current transaction sticks at the below without 
progressing. The kernel is the only thing for the transaction. It was 
installed within the group of installs using pup. The transaction locked 
up a little over two minutes into the transaction. While on its own, it 
is 16 seconds and holding.
