The original version of fedora-release for F15 (fedora-release-15-1.noarch)
mistakenly depended on fedora-release-rawhide, so all F15 installs included
fedora-release-rawhide-15-1.noarch as well (even though rawhide is disabled by
default in the config file). See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=708553 .

The https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/fedora-release-15-3 update gets rid
of the dependency and also obsoletes fedora-release-rawhide to uninstall it.
This works properly when using command-line yum to update. Unfortunately, it
exposed a bug in PackageKit (see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=716752 ) which has still not been
fixed, in that it causes the OP's error. I added this to Common Bugs (
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F15_bugs#fedora-release-15-3_update ).
