This is package, not rpm problem. Dunno if this something new in the firmware or kernel, tossing to firmware on random for starters.
Comment 2 Nicolas Chauvet (kwizart) 2008-10-28 08:45:11 UTC 
Indeed, I don't known either.
iwl4965-firmware is beeing installed twice with the "gold" version and the updates version.
The  problem "can" live in rpm (as a Feature request IMO) because the Conflict in kernel is used to force updating the iwl4965-firmware along with not "requiring it" if not used. This hack seems to force the firmware to be installed twice.

@Ian
I guess adding the fedora-updates repository at install time would be a workaround for this problem.
