The error message tells you that a f11 package _is_ installed already.
The full output of "yum -v repolist ; yum -y update" might give a clue,
too.

rpm -qa qt\*
yum list qt\*

What do you get for those commands?

According to the error message, qt-mysql-4.5.0-14.fc11.i586 (with Epoch 1)
is what is installed already, and it cannot be updated to a newer "qt"
(e.g. the 4.6.x version from F12 Updates), because the corresponding
qt-mysql update is not seen. Hence the old qt-mysql blocks the new qt
from replacing the old qt.

In my opinion, the "Please report..." in that error message is misleading.
It somehow assumes that the problem _might_ be a bug in Yum instead of
a problem in the repositories or in the packages. But it's more likely
a problem with your Yum repository configuration or your installation
(e.g. duplicates: 'package-cleanup --cleandupes' would help with those).
