This doesn't look to me like F12 updates are being factored in properly.
Not true. Btw, the report explicitly refers to "fedora-updates-12-i386"
and "fedora-updates-12-x86_64" in two of its section titles and lists
many packages found in those repos.
openvrml-0.18.3-10 is currently in F12 updates.
Doesn't matter, because your quote is truncated. The two .i686 lines
you've quoted are about openvrml.i686 in the fedora-12-x86_64 repo (!).
It's multilib breakage. Some time between F12 updates and F13 you've
killed openvrml-devel, so openvrml is no longer chosen for the
multilib repo compose. Some packagers fix that with "self-obsoletes".
In the "openvrml" package:
Obsoletes: openvrml < %{version}-%{release}
That way, openvrml.x86_64 would replace an old/obsolete openvrml.i686,
if installed.
