You seem to have both fedora 3 and fedora-rawhide (rawhide is the in
fedora development tree, currently an unstable version of fedora 4)
installed. That means you are telling yum to install a mix between
fedora 3 and fedora rawhide. This is probably causing your problems.
If I were you I would disable the fedora-rawhide repository.

Also what is the local repository that you have configured?
