If you run updates-testing, you may need to run "yum distro-sync" from
time to time.

The reason for that is simple. Test Updates are withdrawn because they are
broken. They are not available in the repos anymore, but it could be that
you've installed them or updated to them already.  Often, broken test
updates are replaced with a newer release, which would replace your
installed packages. However, some test updates are not replaced, at least
not too soon. And even if a newer test update replaces an earlier broken
one, it could be that it doesn't even try to fix temporary packaging
issues.

The -41alpha18.fc17 release has been trouble-some. It could not be
installed here with an ordinary F-17 Beta installation "yum update".

The existing broken deps reports only search for dependency problems in
the current repository contents. Typically, that is unable to catch all
kinds of upgrade issues as older package releases are not in the repos
anymore.

Try "yum distro-sync".
