The bit that you snipped above includes a downgrading of libpisock to
libpisock.so.8. When that's done, libpisock.so.9 will no longer be
available.

The problem is that sylpheed-claws in Extras needs rebuilding.

P.S. Using the "-y" option to yum isn't a great idea if you don't know
what it's going to do.
