I've been seeing this for quite a while, probably since I started trying
out FC7.  There seems some definite tardiness in updates getting out to
mirrors.  When I've bothered to go hunting around, I've found it hard to
find an up-to-date mirror, there's lots of them that are lagging.

With prior releases, the usual problem I noticed was out-of-sync mirrors
(what's listed as being available, and what was available).  You'd try
to yum update, and it'd fail on some things.  Now, you try, and you get
"nothing to do" messages.  Perhaps whatever was tried to avoid the
out-of-sync problem is causing a new one?
