when I type the command 'yum update' I get the following error
Error: Package: 3:perl-version-0.74-87.fc12.i686 (@updates)

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
Any ideas about resolving this?

Try yum clean all or yum clean metadata and then do yum update again. If that does not work, you might be able to erase the package in question and try to do update.
