You are running Fedora Core 4 Test 3 (FC3.92). That explains why you had 
"development" enabled. It would have been useful to have mentioned this 
before.

To be honest I would suggest reinstalling from scratch, as your system 
may have all sorts of weird packages installed. However, if you want to 
try to salvage things, try this:

# rpm -Uvh 
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/4/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/fedora-release-4-2.noarch.rpm

(that's one long line)

Then try "yum update" again, making sure you have "base" and 
"updates-released" repos enabled, and the "development" repo disabled.
