Thanks everyone for the reply.

Yes, I did get lots of duplicate packages but I've already fixed that.
Basically, what I did was to run Adam Stoke's script to remove
duplcate packages. It can be located at http://astokes.org/?q=node/49

After the duplicate packages were removed, I then did a yum -y update
again - ended up downloading ~160mb packages all over again but the
update went cleanly this time.

Best Regards,
Matt
