All these src.rpms build _something_ that is obsoleted by something else.
For yum-utils, it's the yum-plugin-security subpackage, which is
obsoleted by yum.
The closer look at it: yum obsoletes yum-plugin-security < 1.1.32
with yum-utils being at 1.1.31. If yum-utils were bumped to 1.1.32,
the Obsoletes would not be high enough anymore, and yum-plugin-security
would become installable again.
Certainly something that's not right.
