Did you try to run "yum clean all" and then try "yum update" again?
Yum has recently started to act weird, apparently a bug with sqlite
that occasionally corrupts the dependency database and starts
suggesting bogus dependencies. That might be the issue you are
experiencing. Running "yum clean all" fixes the issue for the next
run.

HTH,
