That -- sort of explains things. Looks like you've been using Remi
Collett's Firefox 2 repo. Unfortunately, FC6 has decided to stick with
Firefox 1.5, and has built yelp and devhelp against them.

You may be able to get away with uninstalling both yelp and devhelp. You
may need to do a parallel install of Firefox 1.5 and 2.0. Or you may
need to look for an update from Remi's site. Or you may want to
downgrade to the Fedora Firefox, upgrade yelp and devhelp, and then try
reinstalling Remi's packages.

Good luck!

James.
