A yum clean all seemed to fix the problem for me.  Before the
clean:

yum update
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Setting up Update Process
No Packages marked for Update

After the clean:
...
Install      18 Package(s)
Upgrade     388 Package(s)
Remove        2 Package(s)
Reinstall     0 Package(s)
Downgrade     0 Package(s)

Total download size: 583 M
