Have you tried to run update on the libelf packages first since they are causing the conflict? Unfortunately, I have no 64-bit machine to help.
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I did have the i386 versions installed as well, so its possible that was the issue. Those were good suggestions, but unfortunately, impatience got the better of me, and I tried to force the upgrade, which then completely broke rpm. Thankfully doing an upgrade with anaconda worked, so I'm back in business. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L.
