 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
Did anyone else run into this?

Yes, same problem here.
Seeing the output, all of the packages are form epel, so it just seems to be epel problem. First I thought I had priorities clashing or something, but no, it all comes form the same repo.
I tried disabling obsoletes as well, to no avail.
Yeah, seems like packaging problem.

So, I wonder.. will this problem go away by itself? I don't want to do --skip-broken every time I yum update..

Just yum remove libNX_Xpm-devel then read the list of things it wants to remove with it and only reply Y if there's nothing critical being removed with it.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

Well, it will not go away by itself. After discovering it I searched the bugzilla and it's been reported already, as you perhaps noticed?

Anyway, I just removed nx-libs, it took the rest with it and then I installed the new ones. All is well again.
