As I noted earlier today, I had made postgresql 'invisible' to yum in the fedora repo...
When I made it visible all of the missing f15 postgresql rpms showed up in yumex.
When I installed the missing rpms the older fedora rpms vanished and I was able
to do as Tom suggested:
service postgresql pg_upgrade
and the conversion was successful :)
I am now running version Pg 9.0.4.
