I am not sure what how you disabled that, and what you already installed, but you will not get "fc12" packages from any other place but rawhide repositories. It appears that this "disabling" was not that complete. Check what you really have in /etc/fedora-release and in /etc/yum.repos.d/. yum --disablerepo='*' --enablerepo=<some_repo> --enablerepo=<other_one> ... makes possible to control what you are using real tight as long as you have corresponding description files in /etc/yum.repos.d/. Check first with 'repolist' yum command to see if you are really using what you think that you are using. As long as your rpm is still functional you can still installed specific packages directly with rpm (using some flags like --oldpackage if needed). Only you have to remember to do a package and its all dependencies in one transaction. In particular with rpm if you will mess that up you may get yourself into a real trouble. Even with a broken rpm it is still possible to recover by unpack required rpm packages, on another system if necessary, and moving results of that operation into right places. An rpm database can be brought into a consistent state later.
