This isn't "yum messed up", it's "some of the yum repositories you're
looking at are messed up". And "messed up" could simply be "temporarily out
of sync; try again later".

In this case, it looks like geronimo-specs is updated, but
geronimo-specs-compat is not.

First thing I'd try is "yum upgrade geronimo-specs" instead of "yum update
geronimo-specs". This pulls in package-obsoletes information, which is
marginally slower but is usually what you want done.

If that doesn't work, check to make sure you need the compat package. If
not, remove it.
