Seems that there is a conflicting dependency on
openssl.
Currenly installed packages that need it, are using
openssl-1.0.0b-1.fc13.i686 which is installed,
whereas package libguestfs (available
from updates) triggers a requirement for the older
openssl-1.0.0a-1.fc13.i686

# yum install libguestfs

  You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

libguestfs is from updates repo:

# yum list available libguestfs
Available Packages
libguestfs.i686                     1:1.6.0-1.fc13.1        updates

Hope the updates repo maintainers will rebuild
libguestfs to use latest openssl version.
