Re: Yum fails to update.

There are several things wrong here. But since there's no actual
question, I'll ask a few.
What distribution are you running this on?

According to the snippet below, you've got el4 (which would be
centos4/RHEL4) packages coming from rpmforge, fedora core 6 packages
though a few of these are also in RHEL5/centos5, and some fedora core
7 packages.

Basically, you're crossing multiple distros of things and that's got
yum very much confused.
This would seem to be a problem of your own making, though without
some more information about your system, there's no further help that
we can provide here.
