Description of problem:
This may be related to BZ 144376, but not sure so opening a new one.

Did a fresh install of FC3, ran yum updates with standard FC3 base and
updates-released repos successfully, then added my favorite 3rd party
repos (dag, freshrpms, gstreamer, atrpms-stable, newrpms, local,
macromedia.mplug.org) and tried to update again.  Got numerous
seemingly-bogus conflicts, so decided to give yum-2.1.13 from rawhide
a shot at it.  Grabbed the SRPM and rebuilt from source for FC3. 
Things improved considerably after upgrade to rawhide-rebuilt
yum-2.1.13-1 - far fewer conflicts reported - but yum still tried to
install two versions of opensp.  I tried to force just the opensp
package with

# yum install opensp

and that completed OK.  Then tried again and yum wanted to "update"
opensp to a version older than the installed one. ...

# yum upgrade
... several KB  of output/errors deleted ...
Finished Transaction Test
Transaction Check Error:   package opensp-1.5.1-9.rhfc3.at (which is
newer than opensp-1.5-0_6.1.rhfc3.at) is already installed

Then tried

# yum --exclude=opensp upgrade

and that allowed the upgrade to complete.  Then

# yum upgrade

returned with no further packages to upgrade.

Have captured the logs of the entire process attached.

# ll -rt yum.*
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 76302 Feb  1 17:24 yum.err1    # Old yum
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 73307 Feb  1 18:08 yum.err2    # New yum
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  3108 Feb  1 18:12 yum.kludge1 # install
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 65588 Feb  1 18:17 yum.err3    # upgrade
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 84989 Feb  1 18:31 yum.kludge2 # exclude
-rw-r--r--  1 root root  1932 Feb  1 18:33 yum.ok      # success


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-2.1.13-1

How reproducible:
Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Fresh install
2. Update with yum
3. Add 3rd party repos and upgrade again.
    

Actual Results:  Package conflicts with opensp versions.

Expected Results:  Clean update

okay, I've looked through all of this - there's a problem with
something trying to pull in the older opensp but I can't figure out
what yet. Right now, unless I can get a repeater that is less involved
than this I'm going to suggest that's it just an inter repo conflict
(and you do have a lot of various repos, not that they're conflicting,
just that things happen). For now.

Like I said I'll snoop around and look for some reason why the older
opensp is being pulled in, but for the moment I can't trace it back
through these logs. They aren't detailed enough, sadly. debug level 5
and higher is normally needed.

thanks
reopen if you can find a way to replicate it.
