Do you perhaps have the "pine" mail client installed? If so, pine uses 
the libc-client package, which comes with uw-imap. When you build 
uw-imap from the source rpm, it creates a separate rpm for libc-client, 
so I'm not sure why pup thinks uw-imap needs to be updated instead of 
libc-client.

Maybe put uw-imap in the exclusions list in yum.conf? Or build the new 
uw-imap from the source rpm and just install the libc-client package.
