Have you added the fedora.us repository to your yum.conf? I saw three
repositories on your yum output:

I'm assuming the middle one is livna.org. You need to add the fedora.us
repository (that's where the missing packages are). That's why livna.org has
the warning: "RPM.Livna.org is not a standalone repository. You must use
rpm.livna.org with Fedora.us repository" in a big red box at the top of the
webpage. ;-)
Here's the setup for yum.conf:
[fedora-us-1-stable]
name=Fedora Linux (stable) for Fedora Core 1 -- Fedora US mirror
baseurl=http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/fedora/fedora/fedora/1/i386/yum/stabl
e
and for rhn's sources file:
yum fedora-us-1-stable
http://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/fedora/fedora/fedora/1/i386/yum/stable
Cheers,
Bryan
