What's in the .repo file for the "dag" repo?
# cat dag.repo.REN
[dag] name=Dag RPM Repository for Fedora Core
baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/fedora/$releasever/en/$basearch/dag
OK, try replacing that with this /etc/yum.repos.d/dag.repo
[dag]
name=Dag RPM Repository for Fedora Core
baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/fedora/$releasever/en/$basearch/dag
gpgkey=http://dag.wieers.com/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
gpgcheck=1
enabled=0
Then try "yum --enablerepo=dag update" and see how many "FC3" packages
you're left with afterwards.
With dag enabled it updated just 2 pkg's. So, I did the same for dries
and freshrpms.
That did another 8 pkg's. Livna is down, so I couldn't try that.
If I now do a 'yum remove *fc3*' I still get 55 pkgs to remove.
Maybe I shouldn't post the entire output, but it might be beneficial,
so kindly excuse if this is out of line. Here goes:

Right, you've got a bunch of packages installed with later "FC3"
versions than the "official" "FC4" versions, and the repos you have
configured aren't providing updates for these. So what I'd suggest is to
replace them with the official FC4 packages:
# yum install yum-utils
# mkdir /tmp/fc4pkgs
# cd /tmp/fc4pkgs
# yumdownloader iptstate rsync nmap rhythmbox \
nscd syslinux redhat-artwork perl-Digest-SHA1 \
nmap-frontend speex
# rpm -Uvh --oldpackage *.rpm
# cd /tmp
# rm -rf fc4pkgs
Then see what you're left with.
Paul.
