 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

What do they mean exactly and how can i fix them?

Answer

You have a conflicting repository named webtatic installed. Remove this repo (and any packages installed from it).

Once this is done, run yum distro-sync to sync your system to the latest versions of packages which are in the repositories.

At this point, you can install any additional packages you need.
