This is strange.  The latest version of KDE for FC3 in updates is 3.4.2.
Yum is supposed to take care of figuring out all of the dependencies, so
 I would have thought that it would also have downloaded the other
kde___-3.4.2 packages as well, instead of giving you this error.

What version of yum do you have installed?  What does your yum.conf look
like?  What was the command you gave on the command line to update
kdelibs?  What happens when you do '# yum check-update'?

As a workaround, you might try this:
   # yum update `rpm -qa kde* --qf '%{name} '`
and see if that works for you.
