For most of these, the solution is to remove the packages (namely PIL,
smart, smart-gui, tovid, pyparted, gstreamer08-plugins and Numeric).  

I'm not sure why you're hitting the gecko-libs problems for yelp and
dev-help.

The main point I'm making is that if you are doing "yum upgrade",
yum-presto will reduce the amount of bandwidth you have to download.
The missing dependencies you've listed will still be missing if you
don't use yum-presto.  I'm afraid I'm not expert enough in the ins and
outs of doing a distribution upgrade to help much beyond that.
