For all the folks that have upgraded from FC6 to FC7 please check your
repo file for updates that should work with:

baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/$releasever/$basearch/

In FC6 it was:

baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/$releasever/$basearch/

Please note different structure...
