Step 1 is to clean up your yum configuration. In FC4 there should be no 
repo definitions in /etc/yum.conf - they should be in .repo files in the 
/etc/yum.repos.d directory; you've got two or maybe even three 
definitions for the [base] repo, which isn't helping. So clean out 
yum.conf and rationalise the entries in /etc/yum.repos.d so that you 
know which repos you've enabled and there is only one definition of each 
one.

Then try again and we'll take it from there.
