Yum should update dependencies automatically - 
that's what it's designed for.

1) Which version of Fedora is this? 

2) Can you look in /etc/yum.conf, and /etc/yum.repos.d/, and 
see which repositories are enabled? (enabled = 1)

2) Do you have anything installed from source (anything kernel-related,
for example)?

3) Do you actually need GFS on your system?
