Hi,
I'm attempting an upgrade to F7 from FC6.
I have updated the yum repo files to refer to the new repositories, but
issuing the following command produces the output shown:

As I understand it, F7 has python 2.5. Is there any particular reason
why these listed packages aren't being upgraded along with python?
Other things I've done: I've disabled the updates repository and that
makes things worse (more unavailable packages).
What are my options for solving this?

I don't know...you probably should be familiar with this page. Perhaps
the problem is the repositories you have presently configured
