Description of problem:

Yum updated failed, locked "A restart is required" message at the top of KDE GUI even though the package failed to install.  If the restart button is pressed, on reboot, yum prompts to install updates again and results in the same 'a restart is required message (endless loop if you only follow GUI prompts, likely separate bug could be filed, not the root cause of this failure though)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

mod_python-3.3.1-18.fc17.i686

How reproducible:
One occurrence, Have not tried re-installing just to reproduce.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upgrade 32 bit Fedora from 17 to 18 using FedUp
2. Run a Yum update

Actual results:

(response to yum update from terminal):
