OK, try this...(you need root so simply 'su -')
this is supplied so you could simply paste this all after you su to root
per above
cd /etc/yum.repos.d
mkdir NOT-USED
mv * NOT-USED # clear out all repos for the moment
mv NOT-USED/fedora-development.repo.rpmsave fedora-development.repo
mv NOT-USED/fedora-updates-testing.repo.rpmsave
fedora-updates-testing.repo
mv NOT-USED/fedora-updates.repo.rpmsave fedora-updates.repo
mv NOT-USED/fedora.repo.rpmsave fedora.repo
mv NOT-USED/livna.repo.rpmsave livna.repo
mv NOT-USED/livna-testing.repo .
mv NOT-USED/livna-devel.repo .
# at this point, you should be able to yum update without much issue and
I am presuming that the latest installs of fedora-release and
livna-release put their repo files rpmsave because the originals were
tainted.
The rest of the repos you can add by mv the files back but only do 1 or
2 at a time so you will see if any have problems.
Myself, I would probably move the rpmforge.repo back but it might be an
issue depending upon how old it is. Possibly kde-redhat stuff (may be
old), maybe jpackage...again, it could be old and broken
