Some of those are supposed to be duplicated. If you have an x86_64
architecture, you get both the 64-bit and 32-bit versions of some
packages.
See the thread "Yum upgrade to 4.4 problem" in the August 31 - early
September time span in the CentOS list archives at
http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/.
In particular this:
> prompt> rpm -qa --qf "%{NAME}\n" | sort | uniq -d
is the wrong "rpm" incantation to detect the real duplications on
x86_64. You need to
include %{ARCH} in there somewhere.
