OK, I just checked with "dnf repoquery --whatrequires yum-utils" on my
F23 and among the listed packages there really is one of those you
mentioned:

plasma-workspace-drkonqi-0:5.6.5-1.fc23.x86_64

Since yum-utils requires yum and yum requires yum-metadata-parser, you
get all these pulled in for the update transaction.
