I suppose the line 'updated my centos 4.5 server to centos last week'
means 'updated my centos 4.5 server to centos 5 last week' ... that can
explain the python 2.4 stuff ..
Anyway, why not disabling the fastestmirror plugin temporary ? 
Check for enabled= in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf
Then update and see it that packages was not left behind after your
upgrade to 5 .. (if that was the case ..)
