Understanding yum messages

I sometimes have the greatest trouble understanding yum messages.  Today's, 
for instance:

yum update soprano*
Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
Setting up Update Process
Resolving Dependencies
--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: soprano = 2.3.0 for package: soprano-backend-
sesame2-2.3.0-3.fc11.i386
---> Package soprano.i586 0:2.3.63-0.1.20091009.fc11 set to be updated
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
soprano-backend-sesame2-2.3.0-3.fc11.i386 from installed has depsolving 
problems
  --> Missing Dependency: soprano = 2.3.0 is needed by package soprano-
backend-sesame2-2.3.0-3.fc11.i386 (installed)
Error: Missing Dependency: soprano = 2.3.0 is needed by package soprano-
backend-sesame2-2.3.0-3.fc11.i386 (installed)
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                        package-cleanup --dupes
                        rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

I've tried all three clean-up commands, with nothing reported.

Does this mean that I've got the soprano package out of sync with the others?
