Learn how to use yum queries or use "repoquery" from yum-utils. Even
standard RPM queries point to the problem:

  rpm --query --whatprovides gecko-libs
  yum whatprovides gecko-libs
  repoquery --whatprovides gecko-libs

"gecko-libs" is a virtual package provided by the "firefox" package.
Due to a firefox update, everything that depends on an older
gecko-libs version is being rebuilt, too. It may be that not all
updates are complete yet. The new firefox, which provides a new
gecko-libs version, breaks the other packages' dependencies. Hence yum
refuses to install the updates.
