How are you checking? tigervnc-server-1.0.0-1.fc12.i686 is installed on
my machine. Looks like this is a case of the F11 updates version having
a higher release number than the F12 version. Because it blocks the ssl
update that's going to cause a mess. The easiest solution is to remove it
before the update and then reinstall it afterwards. If you do the update
in a yum shell you can probably avoid erasing it for a while, but it
may be simpler for a package without a lot of dependencies to erase it.
