Most of them are upgrades, but some (perl-CPAN as a quick example) aren't Fedora 
packages at all.

  perl-CPAN:
    Installed: 0:1.76_01-0
    Candidate: 0:1.76_01-0
    Version Table:
   *** 0:1.76_01-0 0
          100 RPM Database
       0:1.76_01-0 0
          500 http://apt-internal.theiqgroup.com IQGroup/os-stable pkglist
       0:1.76_01-0 0
         1001 http://apt-internal.theiqgroup.com IQGroup/os-devel pkglist

In any case, I have the exact same packages as the repository.  The repository 
is actually built from packages I've built locally.  I made the repository to 
ease deployment in our development and production environments, and I want to 
keep it pinned because our Perl is completely different from Fedora's, so none 
of the distro packages will work anyway.

I just don't get why it thinks they're different when they're exactly the same.  
Obviously it's a bug.
