A general suggestion is that if something break dependencies in
testing stuff, which happens and surely will happen many times more,
then to check where these troubles are coming from and exclude
relevant packages from updates until other thing will catch.
'rpm -qf /path/to/something' will tell you what "owns" given files.

Add --exclude='ghosts*' to your yum command, until versions of
gimp-print and ImageMagick recompiled with new libraries show up,
and that will cover this problem

The current version is 1.9.104-2 and it looks like that
openoffice.org-pyuno was dropped from x86_64 set (it is available in
i386 and _all_ openoffice packages are i386 only) together with
python.i386 which is required to support that.  If this was a
deliberate decision that means that either you will have live with a
reduced functionality on x86_64 side or add required packages from
i386.  If you are not doing the later then you have to deinstall
packages you happen to have on your system and for which newer
versions are not available.  As simple as that.
