I'm not sure why that'd cause an error.  FWIW, I updated popt to
1.10.2.1-1.fc7 on 8/14 without error, so I don't think it's a generic
packaging bug.

1.10.2.1 is newer than 1.10.2, so the versioning is sane.

Does running yum update with the debugging[1] turned up help?

[1] The -d option -- takes a number as an argument.
