Todd, I assume you mean by "upgrade" to use the cd1 9.0 install disk. I'll try removing gphoto2 rpms as you said. Here's the post you asked for. Sorry it's so long. Update- tried to remove gphoto2 in rpmdrake, but it said a bunch of kde packages needed to be removed, so I opted out.
Anyway, rpmdrake now works again. I can't be sure how, or why, except I had removed all those entries for the digital camera trip. I removed and installed another smaller package as a test. It was incredibly slow. It seems to hang with my cdrom blinking in patterens of 9 blinks for about 3-4 minutes. Then the tray opens, and asks for the cd, as normal. I'm using a Lite on 48x12x48 cd burner as the cdrom on this machine, and the 9 blink hang up doesn't happen on my backup machine with a regular cdrom drive, and a standard 9.0 installation. Apparently, this has something to do with the cd burner doubling as the cdrom drive. Is there any way to correct this huge slow down? It's as if it's going through some long involved and unnecessary procedure before rpmdrake can install/remove anything.
