This was fun for me to figure out as well. Drupal 6 is what is in the F14 
respositories, not Drupal 7 (unless there is a package name extension which 
differentiates between the two -- "yum install drupal" installs Drupal 6). Here 
are a few links that may clear things up a bit:

Note that these are installations for Drupal 7 from drupal.org, not from the 
yum repositories for F14, as the repositories do not carry D7. This means you 
have to pay attention to the report panel inside Drupal and keep up with 
updates on your own (which is less fun than using yum update, obviously, but 
not hard).
