Maybe it's a corrupted RPM file? Try:
yum clean packages
and see if that helps.
My apologies, I should have mentioned that I already did "yum clean
all", and this error occurs no matter which package I try to update
(rdesktop is just one example). I went ahead and ran "yum clean
packages" anyway and tried the update again, but it made no difference.
