There's a conflict between Python files provided from the older
python-imaging-1.1.5-6.fc6 package from the Fedora repository, and the
newer PIL-1.1.5-7.1.fc6.at package from the atrpms.net repository.
This is a reported bug on the atrpms bugzilla
(http://bugzilla.atrpms.net/show_bug.cgi?id=1007) which you should
keep track of (and the atrpms.net list) if using the atrpms.net
repository.

You can tell yum to ignore the PIL-1.1.5-7.1.fc6.at package so it will
not try to install it, or uninstall the older
python-imaging-1.1.5-6.fc6 package so the upgrade does not fail. I
would probably choose the former and hope the conflict is sorted out
soon. The situation shouldn't exist at all, so we have to work around
it.
