yum update from kde-testing broken packages due to dependency issues

[Christos Lazaridis]

For some strange reason I had the i686 (as well as the x86_64) version of 
qtwebkit, kdelibs, kdepimlibs and kdepimlibs-akonadi installed. I removed the 
i686 packages and I had no trouble updating after that.

Thanks everyone for the help!

  Christos.
