 I have no idea where "libcf" comes from, or what requires it.
 Having a look in Fedora the only thing I see is factory-devel which
provides /usr/lib/libcf.a

 My guess is that you have installed a library outside of rpm which is
conflicting with something that python uses.

 Have a look what is in /usr/local, run "python -c 'import rpm'"
(dito. for sqlite, pygpgme and hashlib). Maybe try running ldd on
things.
