Up2date is seriously crippled. The deps in development are pretty decent 
right now. This means that yum -y update should complete successfully. 
You will not need to feed a bunch of --exclude=conflicting-package to yum.

Make sure that  /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-devel.repo

looks something like the below entries and then give yum a go.

[development]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - Development Tree
#baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/$basearch/
mirrorlist=http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors/fedora-core-rawhide
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0

Good Luck,
Jim
