You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
[root@ProjectTeam Desktop]# ^C
[root@ProjectTeam Desktop]# rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
[root@ProjectTeam Desktop]# --skip-broken
bash: --skip-broken: command not found
[root@ProjectTeam Desktop]# -skip-broken
bash: -skip-broken: command not found

not all third party repos are compatible
and you are using the install dvd AS a repo
" anaconda-CentOS-201111250358.x86_64/6.1 "
( from using kickstart)

if you are trying to use the old 6.1 install dvd as a source you will not be able to upgrade to 6.4

remove that repo file

it should be in
etc/yum.repos.d/

can you post the output of this:

also if your base and update repos are coded to use 6.1( and not the 6 or 6.x )then you will need to specify the version to upgrade
or run

the "--skip-broken" program is in the yum-utils rpm
it is not installed by default

the following files are found in etc/yum.repos.d/

centOS-base.repo
centOS-debuginfo.repo
centOS-media.repo
epel.repo
epel-testing.repo
remi.repo

Question No.1 which repo file i should delete.

later i proceed with the command list in the above reply and the result is here

Question no.2 is my OS updated to 6.4?

from the above
no you never upgraded it

to see the version you are running run this

did you ever install anything from the REMI repo
( i think there was a updated firefox there ? maybe ?)
and you have a php repo from remi that is disabled
-- did you replace the cent default php with a different version ?

if not well ALL of those repos are disabled
you might want to uninstall that software repo

then in that list should be the remi repo.

you have said that my cent OS 6.1 not upgraded to 6.4 but when i put the command as indicated, it says iam in 6.4 final.
IS it correct?

and before updating to 6.4, i upgraded my firefox to 24.0
should i remove this repo?

i hope i have settled with 6.4 final. am I?

[ProjectTeam@ProjectTeam Desktop]$ cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 6.4 (Final)
[ProjectTeam@ProjectTeam Desktop]$ su
Password:
[root@ProjectTeam Desktop]# rpm -qa | grep remi
remi-release-6.4-1.el6.remi.noarch
firefox-24.0-1.el6.remi.x86_64
xulrunner-last-24.0-1.el6.remi.x86_64
[root@ProjectTeam Desktop]#

Following on from JohnVV's remarks, this
says all your remi repos are disabled, BUT this
says that you DID enable them at some point (unless you downloaded that stuff and installed it all manually).

In any case, if you want to use ANY repos other than Centos (this warning applies to EPEL also), then install/setup yum priorities
