I am using yum to attempt the same update and I am seeing something similar. If I do a 'yum list wireless-tools', it reports the following:
Installed Packages
wireless-tools.i386 1:27-0.pre25.3 installed
Available Packages
wireless-tools.i386 1:28-0.pre4.1.fc3 updates-released
When I do a 'yum update', however, I get the following mess:
Repository updates-released already added, not adding again
Repository base already added, not adding again

In both cases, it seems like there is something amiss with the dependencies. It looks like it is trying to drop back to a previous (and earlier version) of a package I already have installed.
Hopefully someone can shed some light on how to get the update applied.
Thanks in advance for any help you might offer!
