Unable to upgrade firefox in F7 (needs gecko-libs = 1.8.1.3, this is not available.)

  Had this problem for a while but was just ignoring it. yum is
  complaining of not being able to find gecko-libs, which does not seem
  to be available on the default repos:

Looks like you upgraded to fc7 and you have a bunch of fc6 packages still
floating around. Try "yum remove yelp devhelp gecko-libs"
