Big problem with an update

I was updating Fedora 19 tonight when my system crashed ( I suspect it's 
a memory error)....but anyway it
now **appears I have a lot of duplicate files on my system, at least 
that what yum check all reports.
The crash happened after the updates had been installed I think during 
the verify stage.

This is a partial list of what "yum check all" reports:

I am a relative newcomer to Fedora ( I'm a Debian refugee) so my 
knowledge of yum at the
moment is pretty minimal.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how this can be fixed? The system 
still boots fine

Thanks
