I expect not.
You would need to just update fedora-release first. This updates the yum
repo files to point to the fedora 7 release repos. Then {maybe need a
yum clean metadata dbcache ?} yum update. If you were already up to date
{from the development repo on F7t4} then there should only be minimal
changes.
I think you are seeing the packages that have been held of development
while the release is knocked into shape -> ie what will eventually
become F8.
