Well, you could
(1) remove all the PGDG RPMs,
(2) install the regular Fedora postgresql RPMs,
including postgresql-upgrade
(3) run "service postgresql upgrade"
(I haven't actually tested postgresql-upgrade in the context of
upgrading from 8.4 PGDG RPMs instead of the regular Fedora ones, but
in theory it should work. As always, a filesystem backup of your
database is a good thing to have in case of disaster.)
