I had a spurious problem on updating large number of packages which
would cause a similar problem. I needed to break the update on these
systems into 2 transactions:
1. yum update --skip-broken --exclude="gdm*" --exclude="java-1.7.0"
--exclude="NetworkManager*" --exclude="ModemManager*"
2. yum update

Not every system did this and there didn't seem to be a rhyme or
reason on why it happened for the ones I ran into it (plenty of
memory, plenty of CPU, etc etc)
