Not sure that I would be so eager advising someone to do something that
you haven't already done yourself as that would have drastic
implications.

To Claude -

cat /etc/ld.so.conf

is there an entry there for /usr/X11R6/lib/libXxf86dga.so.1 ?

I don't think that it should be there if it is.

If so,

cp /etc/ld.so.conf /etc/ld.so.conf.bak

edit /etc/ld.so.conf and remove the line with that entry.

Try to install the yum updates again. I don't think that trying to
remove and re-install xorg is a very good idea, especially if there are
other options.

It is possible that the entry for /usr/X11R6/lib/libXxf86dga.so.1 is in
the folder, /etc/ld.so.conf.d  - if so, repeat the above procedure,
adjusting of course for the file with the non-existent link.

FYI - my FC-3

# cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/X11R6/lib/nvidia-graphics-1.0-4363
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/lib/sane
/usr/lib/qt-3.1/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib

# ls -l /etc/ld.so.conf.d/
total 4
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 20 Mar 11 08:10 qt-i386.conf

# cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/qt-i386.conf
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/lib
