No, yours is an entirely different issue. You need to verify the version
of your "fedora-release" package as well as check for any hardcoded
release numbers (instead of the $releasever variable) in /etc/yum.repos.d/ 
The output of "yum -v repolist" is also relevant when talking about repo
configuration troubles.
