Did you 'clean' yum before you ran the update after you installed the
Fedora 11 release package? It sounds like you did not.

Do a   yum-complete-transaction   and see if anything is still remaining
to be installed.

Install   yum-utils    and search for duplicate entries and problems.

package-cleanup --dupes  If there are any clean them with

package-cleanup --cleandupes

package-cleanup --problems  will find any problems such as
broken/missing dependencies and such.

Good luck.
