I haven't been able to get updates for my F11 netbook for the last few days. I'm seeing lots of lines like
kdepimlibs-4.3.4-1.fc11.i586 from installed has depsolving problems --> Unresolvable requirement kdelibs4 >= 4.3.4 for kdepimlibs-4.3.4-1.fc11.i586 (installed) 6:kdemultimedia-4.3.4-1.fc11.i586 from installed has depsolving problems --> Unresolvable requirement kdelibs4 >= 4.3.4 for 6:kdemultimedia-4.3.4-1.fc11.i586 (installed)
I've run the suggested tools, cleaned metadata etc., to no avail. Is there actually a problem, or is it pebcak?

Bad mirror maybe?

My first thought, but this is 3 days, now. Besides, I seem to have those packages.

I've confirmed kdelibs-4.3.4-3.fc11 to be present in the updates repo.

As someone suggested, it could be an issue with the mirrors. Try... in the Fedora and Fedora Updates repo to comment out the mirror urls and un-comment the base urls. Change the base urls from download.fedoraproject.org to download.redhat.fedora.com. yum clean all. yum update.
I made a complaint a couple of years ago about this kind of syncing issue, but they told me that they really do not know what to do about it.

Hi, Eli. Yes I have already tried the base urls.
You can try: yum update --skip-broken
But i doubt this will get you any further. Looks like you have to delete some packages to get 4.3.85 into F-11 right now. I didn't do it. I need all the stuff installed. So i wait. Well, maybe i will upgrade to F-12 soon. But not yet planned.

I have F12 on this laptop, but want to keep F11 a little longer on the netbook - probably for another month, to cover my next absence from home. After that I'll probably upgrade.
I wouldn't worry so much if others were reporting a problem - stuff happens, as the saying goes. However, if no-one else has a problem, that does bother me.

Ooops Firstly I made a typo. Probable dyslexia in action. :)
I meant to type download.fedora.redhat.com not download.redhat.fedora.com. Make sure that the base urls read what I've indicated. The fedora and fedora updates repo files usually come with download.fedoraproject.org. Believe it or not, that base url can also be out of sync for quite sometime. What you could also try is to download the files manually and then rpm -Uvh them to get them installed.

First problem i can see in there is the failure to update kdebase-workspace-python-applet. This is because kdebindings last i checked wasn't building for F11 which means it can't be updated. I found removing kdebase-workspace-python-applet before updating allowed the update although obviously python based plasma applets will stop working... My guess without looking too closely is that since that package can't be updated other packages that depend on it and it depends on can't be updated either causing a huge list of errors.

You can also try running:
"yum --exclude=<trouble maker1> [--exclude=<trouble maker2>] --skip-broken update"
Where <trouble-maker> is e.g. 'kdebase-workspace-python-applet'

That sounded a good idea, but excluding kdebase-workspace-python-applet still left me with a huge list, and what felt like a gigantic task to find the culprit. I decided to try John's solution, removing kdebase-workspace-python- applet, and sure enough the update is now running. Not sure, but I suspect that means that I lose yawp, but it's the only widget that I'd really miss. It may even have been installed for when I tested various other widgets, for other people. ISTR that a superkaramba system monitor was python-based, for instance.

YAWP is C++, so no.
Yes, it continued to work perfectly. I think only the superkaramba monitor widgets that I had installed for experimentation were python ones, and since they were not suitable for me anyway, that's no loss. The things I use regularly are all fine.
