    This is a repository problem with 'vlc' (whichever repo it came from)

    There is a new version of libdvdnav - but 'vlc' which is currently
    installed (from the same repository?) depends on the old libdvdnav
    currently installed. (so the new libdvdnav package breaks this
    dependency)

    The solution is to have an updated vnc build with the updated libdvdnav

    If you don't care for the new libdvdnav - just do:

    yum --exclude=libdvdnav update
