So I've looked back at the steps/chunks I did last night
(unfortunately I did use the GUI once or twice to get a package
or two so those won't be listed here, but in the end, I did:
yum update [a-j]* [m-z]*On Tue, 16 Oct 2007 10:05:59 -0700

Something else in your update set requires the updated
kdebase/graphics/libs and thus they're being pulled back in. All
--exclude does is remove them from being looked at for updates in the
first pass. If something else in your update set requires newer
versions of those they will be added into the transaction set.

(unfortunately I did use the GUI once or twice to get a package
or two so those won't be listed here, but in the end, I did:
yum update [A-Z]* amarok kdeaddons
yum update kdepim
yum update kdemultimedia
yum update kdebindings
yum update kdesdk-libs
yum update kdesdk*
yum update ilmbase
yum update ilmbase*
yum update kdebindings*
yum update OpenEXR
yum update OpenEXR-libs
yum update OpenEXR-libs* ilmbase*
yum update kdelibs
and I think that either bitched about some
stuff and/or got everything except for the libraries
you are complaining about. Then I left it for this morning.
... This morning there were another 206 packages that
had changed overnight. So I just did a 'yum update'
(forgetting about last nights discrepancies)
and it all completed successfully for me.
I know that's not an answer for you, its just my anecdote.
