Another problem now is that a lot of rpm's are now double installed and
somehow this prevents dependency checking of yum from working as it
seems to only see the first package, for example i get the following
error;
Error: Missing Dependency: gnome-python2-desktop = 2.15.3-4 is needed by
package gnome-python2-nautilus-cd-burner
rpm -q gnome-python2-nautilus-cd-burner shows;
gnome-python2-nautilus-cd-burner-2.15.3-4
gnome-python2-nautilus-cd-burner-2.15.4-1
And this happens for loads of packages. I am now trying to remove the
double ones one by one.
Is there anyway to clean up this mess in a more automated way ? Cause i
do not hope i have to remove over 1000 RPMS one by one.

I use the following bash alias to produce a list of all the duplicate packages:
alias rpmDups='rpm -q `rpm -qa --qf "%{NAME}\n" | sort | uniq -d`'
'rpmDups >dupFiles' puts them all in a file. I would CAREFULLY review
and edit out the ones you want to keep (e.g., the newest versions,
kernel and kernel-devel packages, etc.).
WARNING: Be very careful not to remove something you need....
