Uh? What Fedora release is this? You show "fc7" updates, "fc8"
updates and you have "fc9" packages installed already. What the heck
are you doing there? ;)

It can't be said often enough, what is installed already does not
matter if there are updates/upgrades. Only the latest package release
are looked at. And you run a weird mix of Fedora 7/8/9. Clean up the
mess, then let's try again.

Because there may be dependencies on specific library SONAME versions,
such as libcrypto.so.6 and not libcrypto.so.7
