Current state of your installation needs to be examined and compared
with what is available in the repositories.

nss-softokn-freebl-3.17.2-1.fc20 is a rather recent update (Oct 17th)
and usually is available for both x86_64 and i686 in the repo at the same
time. Sometime, user had installed the latest package for i686 without
installing the x86_64 build, and afterwards went on to accessing older
repository contents where only the previous version is available.
"yum clean metadata" then retrying sometimes fixes it together with
either another "yum update" or a "yum distro-sync" (which may downgrade
packages temporarily, however, so be careful!).
I thought perhaps "yum clean metadata" might be the thing to try but I really don't know what I'm doing in this case.

This is an updated system as of yesterday and yum downloaded a new 3.17 kernel this morning but has not been booted yet of course.

It looks like yum clean etadata is worth a try then?

Thanks,

Bob
