On my cleanly installed and updated F14 x86_64 box, the correct versions of the
above packages are

apr-util-1.3.9-3.fc13.x86_64
apr-util-devel-1.3.9-3.fc13.x86_64
apr-util-ldap-1.3.9-3.fc13.x86_64
info-4.13a-10.fc14.x86_64
orc-0.4.6-1.fc14.x86_64
orc-0.4.6-1.fc14.i686
perl-Net-DNS-SEC-0.14-7.fc14.noarch
texinfo-4.13a-10.fc14.x86_64
texinfo-tex-4.13a-10.fc14.x86_64
tzdata-2010k-1.fc14.noarch
tzdata-java-2010k-1.fc14.noarch
xorg-x11-drv-wacom-0.10.8-1.20100726.fc14.x86_64

so assuming these are older than what you currently have installed, "yum
distro-sync" should do the right thing. You don't want to have F13 versions of
packages (meaning packages from the F13 repos, NOT packages with "fc13" in them,
many of which are included in F14), even if they're newer (which ideally
wouldn't happen).
