Fully up to date F23 Workstation system is giving me the following conflict during upgrade.Specifically the "Lets remove gtk3" when I don't see anything from the copr that would replace it.

I guess nobody put 32bit gtk3 in the copr because it's 64bit only?Do you have any reason to use 32bit gtk3 (such as a 3rd party 32bit app installed on your computer that requires gtk3)? If not, then you can properly safely remove it.
I have quite a few out-of-repo applications on my system. Some from coprs, some from self-compile, and some from various vendors (Crossover being one of them, though I don't think that's the issue here).
Beyond gtk3, the other two that jumped out at me were libnm-gtk and colord-libs, both 32-bit. Off the top of my head, I couldn't think of any reason why something other than Gnome itself, or some core piece of Gnome, would have a dependency on them, as they are rather 'niche'. Just seemed like something that would be worth asking about before I went ahead with the upgrade and possibly broke something.
