Well no feedback from the community :-( So I ran preupgrade from F16 again on the hunch it would fix up the Rpmdb and should then do a pretty fast install as all the packages are already installed.
That worked. So no need for anyone to answer. I have a Beefy Miracle, aptly named for me. Someone should look at the JBoss-as package issue. Also perhaps allow people to skip offending application packages in the install rather than force an exit.
