I sympathise - especially as I just spent nearly two painful hours resolving this problem after 
mistakenly trying to update to the new 'rpm' RPM with '--nodeps' - this was a typo - 
NO ONE DO THAT! 
I had to built the previous rpm version and install manually (without rpm) to get rpm working again.
Now that it is, I've finally managed to get 'yum upgrade'-d , so if you are intent on upgrading now, 
here it how I did it (I had all the RPMs mounted under $RPMS - replace with directory where you 
downloaded them - also I run these commands while in KDE, not GNOME ) :

rpm -e --nodeps balsa perl-RPM2 php-snmp gnome-panel
rpm -qa | grep '^jakarta-' | while read r; do rpm -e --nodeps $r; done
rpm -Uvh --nodeps $RPMS/{evolution,gtk2,gtkhtml,glib2}*.rpm
rpm -ivh --nodeps $RPMS/gnome-panel-2.9.90-4.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh --nodeps $RPMS/{libgda*,nautilus-*,jakarta*}
yum upgrade
(works OK !)

then install balsa and rpm-PERL2 if you want them .

Or maybe just wait a while until we get this mess sorted out!

Thanks for your patience,
Jason Vas Dias.
