Anyone know what I need to do here?
There are some good clues in the error line you were given:
"Missing" - Something is missing
"Dependency" - That "something" is depended upon by the package (kdeedu)
you're trying to install.
So, it pretty much appears that you're going to need to install the
package that contains libboost_python.so.1()(64bit) first, before you
attempt to install kdeedu, or at least install it at the same time.
Now, what package has libboost_python.so.1()(64bit)? That's what search
engines were invented for! A quick Google search shows that the file is
part of the boost package, which you can download at rpmfind and pbone,
among other places. Just make sure you get the 64-bit version, OK?
Using the above method, it should be easier for you to find out how to
figure things like this out in the future.
Except that the package the OP wants is in updates, and both core and
updates were enabled. No package in core or updates should require a 3rd
party package to install. It appears that there is a packaging error (for
64bit?), which should be reported via Bugzilla.
libboost_python.so.1()(64bit) is provided by boost-1.32.0-6.x86_64.rpm
in the base repo in FC4. So it would seem that there's an issue with the
OP's base repo.
